The Indian Extinction(wk6)


The Indian extinction was evident during the XVI, The Spanish soldiers and government was taking advantage of the Indian people, and this also happened with the black people.
The urbanism was destroying the Indians homes and was obligating them to live in other part, so this was very difficult for the Indians because they had all their stuff in their villages. So they had to look for another place, where they well do all of the things they need like the food.

The Indians didn’t only have to live in other places but they also have to work all day long so that was a product of the Indian extinction, some of them were so tired that they died during a trip to work. They also had to be sold like food and other things the Spaniards sell Indians and negroes, but this was very bad because the more Indians they sell more did the people want so they increased the prize, so the live for the Indians was very difficult. In the book (Imágenes De Su Diversidad pg86) describe us perfect how tired the Indians were, “cuando pasamos los religiosos vimos a ojos vista canoas a donde llevan indios bagado, morirse los cuatro y canoa que había salido con diez, volver con solo dos, muertos del incomportable trabajo de bogar todo el día y en estas canoas se han consumido los indios del Río Grande con ser antes muchos en cantidad si no se remedia en breve quedara ninguno”.

All of this make the Indians began to extinct. They pass from 9 million to 803 thousands, this numbers are incredible but they are true and that’s one of the reasons today we can only see them in the most hidden places, because they are still afraid of the people that lives in the cities, the damage was so big that its still a problem.
That is also why we dont see much indians in Universities and schools, because of the same and also because they don’t have enough many but they don’t have because of the same problem so we can see that the problems didn’t happened in this century but it has bean growing up form the colonization to this days, but my question is, are we capable of fixing this problem?
