About this listen

In 1550-51, Bartolomé de las Casas and Juan Ginés de Sepúlveda, in the Valladolid Debate, attempted to settle the issue of whether or not Native Americans should have been enslaved, given sanction by the Pope. Both carefully argued their sides, las Casas stating emphatically, through his "Apología", that Native Americans were not all uncivilized and that only Canaanite tribes could be enslaved. What ensued was a heated, good-versus-evil argument that settled nothing and still allowed the Catholic Church and the Spanish government to condone and support the continued enslavement of native peoples.

Jason Wallace asks us to forgive the simplicity of his essay as it was written while he was in college but I think it works in his benefit and makes a great starting point for readers to start exploring the topic in more detail.

Wallace covers some of the main ideology that lead to the events his paper examine and gives the reader some of the key dates and people involved, all of which are valuable as starting points for a more in depth look at the history of these events.

Dennis Logan did a good job of mediating respect for the source material and conveying the message of the paper.

I was given this audiobook for free and have left this review voluntarily.
