\"An activist group called The Campaign to Stop Killer Coke claims eight union leaders at bottling plants in Colombia have been killed since the mid-1990s, and that Coca-Cola has ignored the deaths and other violence against its employees.\"
-The daily journal

\"Fearing for their lives, union members at Carepa resigned en masse and fled the area. The company broke off contract negotiations, the paramilitaries camped outside the plant gate for the next two months, and the union was crushed. Experienced workers who made about $380 a month were replaced by new hires earning minimum wage ($130 a month).\"
-killercoke.org

\"A lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Florida accuses the Coca-Cola Company, its Colombian subsidiary and 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.\"

European Movement
As the German and Spanish writing indicates, the boycott is starting to spread across Europe. This poster, showing a pistol with Coca-Cola logos all over it, was brought back from Europe by one of the activists who went to bolster support on the Continent for the boycott.

They then quickly realized that people hated it and changed it back.

No they didn't, New Coke is still made, they just don't sell it in North America, it is more popular elsewhere in the world where Pepsi used to dominate.
