The Mapuche people's struggle has been going on for over 500 years. Throughout this time they have endured dispossession, discrimination, oppression & genocide.
Many of these atrocities have their roots in the expropriation of ancestral indigenous lands, initially by Spanish invaders, later by forestry multinational plantation companies, large land owners and the Chilean State; please support the Mapuche people in their struggle.
Please find time to take action to support Chile's Indigenous people.
