Colombian Independence Day—Workers have no borders
New York City, July 20—While the Colombian government promotes speeches to celebrate the country's presumed independence today, young workers living in New York City, including a Progressive Labor Party (PLP) member, PLP supporters and other organizers, denounced the oppression and subjugation of the working class in Colombia by multinationals, corporations and the rulers of imperialist countries like the United States. We marched from Times Square to the consulate of Colombia to Bryant Park and finally to Flushing Meadows. Two months ago the organizing of these young people began, as they met protesting in the streets. The process of organizing has cost them time, debate, discussions and tears. PLP members are struggling to strengthen this international working class solidarity while building a movement for communist revolution where the working class runs the world.
