Question

How does the account of Las Casas dramatically differ from the account of Columbus? Provide at least 2 full sentences

Answer 1

Las Casas's account of Columbus's voyage and colonization of the Americas is much more critical than Columbus's own account. Las Casas was a Spanish priest who witnessed the atrocities committed by the Spanish against the native people, and he wrote about the violence, enslavement, and exploitation of the native people by the Spanish.
