| Mapuche on AlJazeera. Members of Chile's indigenous Mapuche community are vowing to take back what they say is stolen land. For years, activists have been trying to re-claim what they say is ancestral territory. But Chile's government disagrees. Last week, a confrontation over the issue turned deadly. A 22-year-old Mapuche man was shot and killed by police, after demonstrators clashed with them during a protest. Our Latin America editor Lucia Newman has more from Tumeco, Chile. | |
| The struggle of Berta and Nicolasa Quintremán Calpán. Their struggle to protect the Mapuche Pehuenche's from the hydroelctric dams. In the decade of 1990, Spanish corporation ENDESA (Empresa Nacional de Electricidad S.A) began to implement its plan to install six hydroelectric dams on the Biobío, with a total capacity of 2,300 megawatts. Plans to dam the Biobío originated in the1950s, when electricity generation in Chile was still state-owned. The first dam, called Pangue, was completed in 1996, and now the company is working in the construction of Ralco, the largest of the planned dams in the Biobío. | |
