"Santiago Lives!
Death to the murderous state"
Memorial mural for anarchist compañero Santiago Maldonado, who was disappeared on August 1st 2017, kidnapped by the Argentine gendarmerie (military police). Two months later, his body was found in the Chubut river.
The gendarmerie are responsible. The State is responsible. Because it was them who took him from the rebel territory of Cushamen.
Santiago was killed for fighting, for showing solidarity, for confronting the gendarmerie alongside the warriors of MAP, the Autonomous Mapuche Movement of Puel Mapu.
The best way we can pay tribute to him is to continue fighting, to continue defying the State and Capital just like he did. Santiago Maldonado who fought on the barricades of Chiloé, defending the sea.
