"
From the very onset of Spanish activity in the Americas, Africans were present both as voluntary expeditionaries and as involuntary colonists" states Matthew Restall from his book entitled, Seven Myths of the Spanish Conquest.

  1. Every single post I have read has been incredibly informing! I don't know how much attention this blog gets but I believe it should receive some praise. I appreciate the minimization of bias in delivery despite the highly charged and incredibly brutal subject matter. I hope you continue making posts.
