After several people died from malnutrition in the Chaco province of Argentina, indigenous activists came to Buenos Aires to express their discontent.
The plight of the indigenous remains largely unnoticed by Argentine's mainstream white society. Argentina is between 86 and 97% white.
The activists are trying to get the supreme court to support poorly-equipped hospitals full of people suffering from infections like tuberculosis. The root of the problem in this region is chiefly economic.
