Since April of this year, Colombians have been in the streets marching, demanding better living conditions, employment, education, more dignified living conditions, a change in the social structure.
In the midst of the clamor for the situation in Colombia, a particular symbol has been raised: the upside-down flag. The yellow, blue, and red stripes became red, blue, and yellow. This July 20th, Colombia s independence day, thousands of people returned to the streets and the flag upside down as well.
As in most countries, people fly the flag in their homes on Independence Day. In Colombia, this year, in the midst of social disagreement and the marches scheduled against the government on July 20, it was proposed in social media to wave their flag, but in reverse.
