Exposition: Santiago Maldonado and struggles in the argentinian region (Charla sobre Santiago Maldonado y las luchas en la región argentina)

 Starting with two paths of struggle that crossed, one by Santiago Maldonado, dissapeared and killed by the Argentinean State, and another by the Mapuche people, we intend to give an overview of the social conflicts that are deepening in the region dominated by the Argentinianand Chilean nations. 


Starting with two paths of struggle that crossed, one by Santiago Maldonado, dissapeared and killed by the Argentinean State, and another by the Mapuche people, that constantly tries to recover their territory and collective identity, we intend to give an overview of the social conflicts that are deepening in the region dominated by the Argentinianand Chilean nations.

While Capital and the States are trying to pauperize and worsen the condition of the proletarians, whereby they be argentinians, chileans, mapuche, qom, wichi or inmigrants, there is a growing number of social movements that are finding each other and deepening their links. Aboriginal movements, struggles against mining, foresting, fracking and agrobusiness, prisoner strikes, the women's movement, massive urban manifestations against the change in retirement funds and labor laws, and the list goes on and on.

Echos of 2001 are resonating once again.
