Indians to be sceptical about

Meet Facundo Jones Huala, the leader of Mapuche Ancenstral Resistance, who seek to secede territories in Chile and Argentina to build a Mapuche independent nation.




He is now waiting to be extradited to Chile for crimes committed there. He was occupying part of the lands of the Benetton state in Patagonia and has build a community there, a lof.

Just thinking that no long time ago this indigenous leader with the unexplainable -or well explained- family name Jones was just another flogger who lived in Palermo, an upper mid class district in Buenos Aires.




Don't let who you are interfere with your dreams and ambitions.

I'm declaring myself to be the cacique Cowan-Có and I aspire to the ancestral lands of the Cowan family -part of the Magdalena and Colonel Brandsen counties- to become a country like San Marino or Liechtenstein. Offers to build a casino will be considered. Slan na Pehuén-che!

Guiding fictions like "Argentina, melting pot" and "Argentina, land of opportunities" pale before another guiding fiction: "Argentina, generous country" (meaning the country handles a wide variety of whimsical claims with kid gloves)
