A Latin American Solidarity Network (LASNET) event to raise funds for a community run radio station for the Indigenous Mapuche peoples of Central and Southern Chile and Southern Argentina.

The Mapuche Peoples continue to struggle against neo-colonialism, harsh State repression and enforced poverty; and for territorial reclamation.

Strong community ties and effective communication tools help create strong and dynamic grassroots organisations and movements, thus community radio can help strengthen the Mapuche peoples' struggles.

Come and show your solidarity with the Mapuche peoples by dancing to rad bands and perhaps drinking too much...
