DESCRIPTION:Carolina Dutton and Dale Sorensen were part of a Task Force/SOA Watch 
 delegation to Chile. On October 12th (Indigenous people’s Day) they 
 participated in a march for indigenous rights in Santiago Chile. The focus 
 of the march was to call out for an end to the repression, exploitation, 
 racism and degradation of the ancestral land belonging to the Indigenous 
 nations of Chile. The largest is the Mapuche nation, close to 10% of the 
 Chilean population.\n\n            The delegation traveled south to the 
 region where one half of the Mapuche population resides. It was here that 
 they were able to visit political prisoners and witnessed firsthand the 
 repression of the Mapuche by the Chilean government who accuse them of 
 “terrorism” when they try and take back their lands that have been 
 stolen by the Chilean government and big logging corporations. \n\n         
    The program includes a video, “The Voice of the Mapuche,” slides and 
 an exhibit of drawings by a very special political prisoner, Juana 
 Culfunao.\n\n$10-20 donation requested; a benefit for purchase of video 
 equipment to document human rights violations by police during raids of 
 Mapuche communities.\n\nSponsored by The Task Force on the Americas\n\nFor
