The Interrogation: Bartolomé De Las Casas
A project that some friends and I worked on for our World Civilization class.
A little biography about Bartolome De Las Casas:
Bartolomé de las Casas O.P. (c. 1484 -- 18 July 1566) was a 16th-century Spanish Dominican priest, the first resident Bishop of Chiapas. As a settler in the New World he witnessed, and was driven to oppose, the poor treatment of the Native Americans by the Spanish colonists and advocated before King Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor on behalf of rights for the natives. Originally having proposed to replace the slave labor of the natives with the importation of slaves from Africa, he eventually recanted this stance as well, and became an advocate for the Africans in the colonies.

CAMINAMOS por una avenida que lleva el nombre del primer GOBERNADOR de Puerto Rico
Vamos hacia Ferries del Caribe en el Puerto Panamericano de San Juan y lo hacemos caminando por la histórica avenida Juan Ponces de León que contiene una interesante historia.
Juan Ponce de León y Figueroa (Santervás de Campos, 8 de abril de 1460 – La Habana, julio de 1521), adelantado, fue un explorador y conquistador español, primer gobernante de Puerto Rico y descubridor de la Florida (actual Estados Unidos).
En la cultura popular se asocia su viaje de descubrimiento a Florida con la búsqueda de la fuente de la eterna juventud, sin embargo no hay datos históricos que corroboren esa versión, que probablemente fue un mito posterior.
Gobernador de Puerto Rico y posterior retirada
En su estancia en Higüey, escuchó las historias de las riquezas existentes en Borinquén, la Isla de San Juan. A partir de ese momento concentró todos sus empeños en poder acudir a ese sitio, siéndole concedido el permiso necesario. El 12 de agosto de 1508 Ponce de León parte de Higüey para explorar Borinquén. Dio órdenes de plantar yuca en el caso de que las misiones de exploración en busca de oro fueran fracasando.
Fue recibido con los brazos abiertos por Agüeybaná, cacique taíno, y tomó rápidamente el control de la isla. Por este hecho, Ponce de León fue nombrado Gobernador de la misma en 1509.
En 1506, tras la muerte en el Convento de San Francisco de Valladolid de Cristóbal Colón —que había sido designado gobernador militar de sus descubrimientos—, las autoridades españolas rechazaron conceder el mismo privilegio a su hijo Diego. A pesar de la oposición de Diego Colón, Ponce consiguió ser nombrado gobernador.
En 1508, Ponce de León fundó el primer asentamiento en San Juan, Cáparra, actual San Juan, y fundaría también una villa en San Germán. En Cáparra fijó el hogar para su familia, ordenó construir una fundición de oro, repartió trabajadores entre los seguidores españoles y estableció una hacienda en Toa.
Ponce de León, junto con otros conquistadores, forzó a los taínos a trabajar en las minas y a construir fortalezas. Numerosos taínos fallecieron a causa de la exposición a las enfermedades traídas por los marineros europeos y por la carencia de inmunidad ante esas enfermedades.
Aunque la Corona había seleccionado para entonces a Ponce de León para colonizar y gobernar la isla de San Juan, Diego Colón había presentado una reclamación en el tribunal superior de Madrid y había ganado sus derechos. Ponce de León fue retirado del cargo en 1511.
Sin embargo, para demostrar el favor real, Fernando el Católico envió a Ponce 30 hombres, religiosos católicos de Sevilla, ganado y caballos, y le otorgó a la isla su propio escudo de armas, el primero del Nuevo Mundo. Para celebrar este gesto del Rey, Ponce llamó a Cáparra, su villa, Puerto Rico.
Lamentablemente, el cacique indígena Agüeybaná, que había dado su beneplácito a Ponce, falleció y le sustituyó su sobrino Agüeybaná II el Valiente, quien opuso resistencia. Los arahuacos se unieron a los caribes para luchar contra los españoles, paralizaron la producción de oro y mataron a la mitad de los españoles. Tras esto, Ponce de León organizó la defensa, logrando abatir a Agüeybaná II y provocando la huida de muchos indios. Debido a la escasez de trabajadores, al notar que la producción aurífera había llegado al máximo y al no desear servir a Diego, pidió un título al Rey Fernando para explorar las áreas al norte de Cuba. Dicho título le fue dado gracias a la intervención a su favor de Bartolomé Colón.

Old San Juan, Puerto Rico - Downtown Colonial Architecture HD (2013)
San Juan, officially Municipio de la Ciudad Capital San Juan Bautista (Municipality of the Capital City, Saint John the Baptist), is the capital and most populous municipality in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, an unincorporated territory of the United States. As of the 2010 census, it had a population of 395,326 making it the 46th-largest city under the jurisdiction of the United States. San Juan was founded by Spanish colonists in 1521, who called it Ciudad de Puerto Rico (Rich Port City). Puerto Rico's capital is the second oldest European-established capital city in the Americas, after Santo Domingo, in the Dominican Republic. Several historical buildings are located in San Juan; among the most notable are the city's former defensive forts, Fort San Felipe del Morro and Fort San Cristóbal, and La Fortaleza, the oldest executive mansion in continuous use in the Americas.
Today, San Juan is one of Puerto Rico's most important seaports, and is the island's manufacturing[citation needed], financial, cultural, and tourism center. The population of the Metropolitan Statistical Area, including San Juan and the municipalities of Bayamón, Guaynabo, Cataño, Canóvanas, Caguas, Toa Alta, Toa Baja, Carolina and Trujillo Alto, is about 2 million inhabitants; thus, about half the population of Puerto Rico now lives and works in this area. San Juan is also a principal city of the San Juan-Caguas-Fajardo Combined Statistical Area. The city has been the host of numerous important events within the sports community, including the 1979 Pan American Games, 1966 Central American and Caribbean Games, events of the 2006, 2009 and 2013 World Baseball Classics, the Caribbean Series and the Special Olympics and MLB San Juan Series in 2010.
San Juan is cataloged as a global city, according to the Globalization and World Cities Research Network studies from the Loughborough University in London. Which classifies San Juan as Beta - city.
