New voices

In Chile, education has a problem that goes from how it has been counted historically. Always in history is known from the winners and for us is not an exception, in Chile we know of history from the eyes of the Spanish, more specifically from the Spanish man.

In schools, it is always told from the perspective of the Spanish man, our history leaves aside the original peoples. When we talk about the Mapuches we talk about warrior people, but we do not really know their customs or history, rather we see them as people who dont wanted to modernize.

That's why we only see men at the moment they teach us, only men were the ones who spoke at the moment of telling the story and the women who appeared are always partner, rarely does history show them as protagonists.

That is why thanks to social movements in Chile is that they have begun to hear voices that were previously silent. The Mapuches, women, the LGBT community have been able to appear and begin to generate a space in our society.

That is why social movements have been so important, have come to break with an already established society and that has historically maintained negative behavior. For me, only social movements and people will be able to change this.
