People who worked for Coca Cola were sometimes threatened, kidnaped and even tortured if they were or even started a union for there rights. This is pretty much violating the human right number 14 because they weren't safe there especially since they were threatened and even killed. I was really surprised that Coca Cola would even do this why would they even think of threatening people. Its really upsetting that major companies like Coca Cola are doing this I wonder if other major companies might be doing the same thing like Coca Cola is.
In the poem "Sweatshop" it doesn't exactly say how they might be treated wrong it just says "I don’t know, I don’t know! I’m a machine!" while in the article it says "business affiliates of using paramilitary death squads to murder, torture, kidnap and threaten union leaders at the multinational soft drink manufacturer’s Colombian bottling plants." Coca Cola argument was about how they will stop threatening unions so it can be a safer environment for the workers. It affected on how to understand the meaning because in the article it gives examples on how they feel when they are working. So in the poem it says the feeling and by reading the article in our heads we will be thinking maybe thats how the workers felt or maybe this is happening to them.
