Song of the Taino
Manage episode 276904685 series 2820309
Part two of Conquest of the Americas. Spanish Conquistadores expand from Hispaniola. What follows is a shocking tale of genocide. After Columbus' disastrous management of Hispaniola, he is succeeded by Nicolas de Ovando - a butcher who oversaw the genocide of the Taino people. In roughly a single generation the conquistadores eradicated the people of Hispaniola, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, Cuba, and the Bahamas. This was accomplished via warfare and slavery - and most importantly through the use of concentration camps wherein slaves mined for gold in crowded conditions until they died. Reformers like Bartolome de Las Casas work in vain to stop the destruction.
