> jailed relatives, they need our immediate help, and
> in the name of the Mapuche political prisoners of
> Chile, we ask you for sleeping bags, they need about
> ten of them, you have to know the jails have been
> privatized which implies the poorest have to suffer
> the violation of the most elemental needs such as
> heating in a very cold area of the country, this is
> the price to pay for the FTAA

> talks about truths and discard the lies. They also
> need two or three small portable electric stoves,

> All of this will be joined and sent to Chubut from

"Our system is one of detachment: to keep silenced people from asking questions, to keep the judged from judging, to keep solitary people from joining together, and the soul from putting together its pieces." (Eduardo Galeano)
"Sigan ustedes sabiendo que, mucho más temprano que tarde, se abrirán las grandes alamedas por donde pase el hombre libre, para construir una sociedad mejor." (Salvador Allende, 11 de sept. 1973)
