Los Blancos

Tonight I went to EL UNIVERSO AUDIOVISUAL DE LOS PUEBLOS INDÍGENAS at the Cultural Center of Spain (http://ccespana.cl/).
I saw a documentary (Jaguares) about indigenous groups in Brazil. It was really sad about how they lost their culture due to the blancos (white man, the priests) and how they are just now returning to their traditions.
The other film was about the Jaipo group in Colombia that was protesting to gain more land. Before I had to leave to take the bus back to my apartment, I saw images of police cruelty against those people, chanfle.
