On 18th Oct, Chile will mark 1 year since a rise in metro prices in Santiago sparked nationwide protests and clashes with the police - violence that continues to this day. On 25th Oct there will be a national plebiscite to decide whether to change the constitution that has been in place since 1980, the days of Pinochet. Many blame this constitution for the educational and ethnic imbalance that led to ‘El Estadillo’.

In this episode, we speak to Josh Tucker, an independent journalist who has been charting uprisings in Chile for the last 5.5 years. He tells us about the roots of the unrest in Chile and what may happen in the future.
