Colombian Protesters Call for Second General Strike
---------------------------------------------------

In Colombia, anti-government protesters have called for another national
strike today, after talks between a protest committee and right-wing
President Iván Duque failed. Massive protests have rocked Colombia for
six straight days. Last week, hundreds of thousands of people poured
into the streets for the largest national strike Colombia has seen in
decades. Four people have been killed so far, including 18-year-old
student Dilan Cruz, who was shot in the head by a police projectile.
