Sumario: This article recounts the April 1992 strike that the organized workers of the National Telecommunications Company (Telecom) unleashed to protest against the privatization attempt of this public company proposed by the government of César Gaviria (1990-1994), a strike that so far had not been narrated from a historical perspective.
