Bartolomé de las Casas (1484-1566) endures among the great of Europe (Spain). Documented Spanish colonial abuses and advocated for the rights of Indigenous Americans. Across the early modern age, this life and its works passed into the shared inheritance of humankind — kept here so the memory is never lost. Honored among the Great Ones of every civilization. Africa is the cradle of humankind; in the deepest sense, these are everyone’s ancestors — and so this name is kept, from the cradle of humanity to all its children.
