Happy Indigenous People's Day. Real Italians Celebrate It.
"Endless testimonies ... prove the mild and pacific temperament of the natives. . - . But our work was to exasperate, ravage, kill, mangle and destroy; small wonder, then, if they tried to kill one of us now and then.... The admiral, it is true, was blind as those who came after him, and he was so anxious to please the King that he committed irreparable crimes against the Indians...." Bartolome' de las Casas
