Mapuche struggles for recomposition in Patagonia take place across various terrains, and assume a great diversity of forms. In this chapter, I look at the dynamics of these struggles, focusing on one of their spheres and strategies of work: communication. For Mapuche territorial movements, communication matters for two primary reasons. Firstly, because it serves as a vehicle for capital and the state in perpetuating Argentina’s negation of its indigenous reality; in discourse as in policy. At the same time, different media are employed as a tool for indigenous struggles to (re)construct political subjects and projects. Through its articulation across fragmented and dispersed urban and rural communities, 1 or connecting indigenous with other sectors, they can help to (re)weave webs of organizing and solidarity. In fact, for well over a decade, Mapuche and Mapuche-Tehuelche movements, and the communication collectives that grew out of them, have been making media. Many of these projects were launched in the decade after 2001, and operated autonomously from the state, in collaboration with other movements, with alternative media or nongovernmental organizations (NGOs).
