Injured workers stitch lips closed in hunger strike to the death

Jorge with stitches

Manuel with stitches

Four workers injured from the General Motors Colmotores assembly plant sewed their lips shut on August 1, 2012, initiating the hunger strike that their association has now carried out for the past 12 days. This escalation comes a year after they set up tents and a makeshift shelter and began to occupy the sidewalk in front of the U.S. Embassy in Bogota, Colombia. They have maintained this peaceful protest day and night for the past 377 days- demanding that General Motors Colmotores resolve their desperate situation.
