     An estimated 12,000 marched peacefully in Santiago for Mapuche indigena rights...but some small clashes were reported between police and hooded vandals...with at least 7 arrests...after youths destroyed traffic lights and signs.
     The protest was held on the 519th anniversary of Columbus's arrival in the Americas...the start of the Spanish conquest...a day of mourning for the Mapuche.
