We were living in abandoned factories, without water or electricity . Our work was underpaid. leave the places where we slept every morning at 6:00 to re-enter only at night € 20.00 for the 25 that did not end even in all our pockets. Sometimes we were not, after a hard day's work, us pay. We returned with empty hands and the body bent by toil . (...) We were beaten, harassed, hunted down like animals ... taken, someone is gone forever. They shot him , for fun or for someone's interest. (...) I do not could more. Those who were not wounded by bullets, were injured in their dignity, their pride as human beings. could not wait for more help that would never happen because we are invisible do not exist for the authorities of this country. (...) ask the authorities of that country to meet and to listen to our demands : • ask that the permit be granted for humanitarian reasons to 11 African injured in Rosario, is also granted to all of us, victims of exploitation and irregular our condition that has left us without work, abandoned and forgotten street. • We want the government to assume its responsibilities and guarantees us the opportunity to work with dignity.
