Bartolomé de las Casas faced several challenges in his advocacy for the rights of Indigenous peoples in the Americas. He encountered significant opposition from colonial authorities and fellow settlers who benefitted from the exploitation of Indigenous labor. His efforts to reform the encomienda system and promote peaceful coexistence were often met with resistance, leading to frustrations and limited impact on policy change. Additionally, balancing his role as a clergy member while challenging the prevailing norms of his time posed a continual struggle.
