Bartolome de las Casa was a Dominican friar and social reformer who fought for the rights of Native Americans under Spanish rule. He went before Charles V, the Holy Roman Emperor to plead against slavery in the colonies. Ironically, his compassion was only for the Native slaves, and he was in part responsible for the transatlantic slave trade.
