DESCRIPTION:WHO IS SOFIA? \n\nSofia Painiqueo is a Mapuche leader and activist, working 
 for the preservation, dissemination, and sociopolitical, economic, and 
 cultural development of the Mapuche people. She founded the Aflailai 
 Foundation in 1980 in Santiago, an organization devoted to rescued and 
 diffuse the musical traditions of her people. In addition, she contributes 
 to the development of a grapheme alphabet to write the Mapuche language, 
 produces Mapuche music, and directed a documentary on the Mapuche in Chile. 
 Sofia was a candidate for Member of Parliament, a Councillor of the Lumaco 
 commune, represents Mapuche women in different national and international 
 meetings, and is a member of URI (United Indigenous Initiative) as a woman 
 of faith and based on her firm belief in the need for more inclusive 
 intercultural dialogue. She is based in Lumaco, Chile. (Bio from 
 URI.org)\n\nWHAT TO EXPECT FROM THIS EVENT?\n\nThe Resource Center for 
 Nonviolence will be hosting a gathering to  share with Sofia Painiqueo and 
 talk about her work spreading Mapuche traditions and knowledge, and to 
 address both the indigenous issues and social conflicts happening in 
 Chilean territory today, and in the continent in general. \n\nThis is an 
 informal event where everyone is welcome. We will gather  in our 
 Multipurpose Room as a group of friends, around shared food (BRING SOME if 
 you want!) and the genuine interest to learn more from each other. Bring 
 ideas, comments, questions, learning material, music, instruments, and 
 whatever you believe will contribute to this exchange. \n\nNo fee will be 
 charged at the door but donations are encouraged. \n\nThe event will start 
 at 4:00 pm and close at 6:00 pm. We know it's not ideal, but it's the best 
 we could do with Sofia's busy schedule. If you have question or comments 
 regarding acommodations, please email us at bernardita.garcia.j@gmail.com. 
 \n\nConfirm your attendance if you're planning to come, so we can have a 
 more accurate idea of how to organize the space and make this a comfortable 
 instance for everyone. \n
