Members of Chile's indigenous Mapuche community are vowing to take back what they say is stolen land. For years, activists have been trying to re-claim what they say is ancestral territory. But Chile's government disagrees. Last week, a confrontation over the issue turned deadly.

Matías Catrileo a 22-year-old Mapuche man was shot and killed by police, after demonstrators clashed with them during a protest.
Our Latin America editor Lucia Newman has more from Tumeco, Chile. 

Some mistakes from the journalist, Spanish conquest = Spanish did not conquest Mapuche Land, they invaded our ancestral territories with the sword and the cross, killing and taken our precious land.

Huinca: means thief; barbaric; European barbaric not only "white".
