Posted July 22, 2008 in Villa La Angostura.
At the Mapuche community, I found the following sign:
Welcome to LOF
Paichil-Antriao
The Mapuche live
fight goes on and
Petu mongueleyin (we're still alive)
Child Mapuche Part I
In your eyes I see the sadness, my child, knowing that this land was irrigated with native blood of your people, tears were shed sisters on these minefields memories. Of which nothing remains today the strong sun that decorates the sky, now there are gates , wire and iron.
Somebody explain to me sir, please, what all those signs, how can any man be master of the lakes, air and soil?.

Seeking pastures that were my home, I search but can not find. I find only crumbs of bread or "No Trespassing on this ground." "Private property" in the corner read, "No entry for all others" I have to relist the heart to feel that this is again ours.
