About the author

Bartolomé de las Casas

1484–1566

A fierce critic of colonial cruelty, this 16th-century friar used his voice and his pen to defend the Indigenous peoples of the Americas. His eyewitness writing still stands as one of the earliest and most powerful condemnations of imperial abuse.
