Los Fralibos - A song by and for the workers of Fralib
The workers of Fralib sing about their struggle.
"Thé de l'Eléphant was born in Provence, it must stay in Provence"
The workers of Fralib (the Elephant Tea) in Géménos spent 1336 days of struggle against Unilever, the giant multinational behind the Lipton brand. Their collective strength finally managed to make the multinational cave in, and thus SCOPTI coop was born. Their struggle is recounted here by the workers themselves, in French, to the rhythm of the Los Fralibos protest song.
