(Chile) March of Indigenous Peoples in Resistance

March of Indigenous Peoples in Resistance

October 17, 2023 / informativoanarquista

Monday, October 9, a march passed through Alameda in solidarity and memory of the indigenous peoples in resistance, in a context in which the government of Boric implants the longest State of Exception of past decades and intensifies repression against the Mapuche communities that position themselves from the Weichan and who don’t lower their guard.

Throughout the march barricades were errected and the Carabineros (COP) were confronted and Wuñelfe, Wenufoye and Palestinian flags were flown. Chilean and Israeli flags could also be seen burning, the latter representing the colonial advance of the State of Israel against the Gaza strip, in response to the Hamas offensive that took place a few days ago.

Fliers, pamphlets, and graffiti read: “Freedom for all mapuche political prisoners! Fewla! Wewaiñ”, Retake Ránquil road”, “In Anarchist memory, in permanent insurrection Claudia López Dana eternal in rebellion and combat. Freedom for Mónica and Francisco!!”, “Immediate freedom for Mapuche political prisoners in struggle pu weichafe of the CAM, Ernesto Llautul, Ricardo Reinao, Nicolas Alcaman and Estaban Henriquez”, “Freedom for Nelson Queipul”, “Emilia Bau lives”, among others.
