Andrés Reséndez, Professor of History at the University of California, Davis, and author of The Other Slavery: The Uncovered Story of Indian Enslavement in America, delivered the 2017 Maury A. Bromsen Memorial Lecture. The Other Slavery examines the expansive system of bondage that targeted between 2.5 and 5 million Native Americans throughout the hemisphere in the centuries between the arrival of Columbus and the beginning of the 20th century. In contrast to African slavery, which targeted mostly adult males, the majority of these Indian slaves were women and children. Professor Reséndez was introduced by Neil Safier, JCB Director and Librarian, and Lin Fisher, Associate Professor of History at Brown University.

I found this lecture very interesting and was glad to watch it on line
Felicidades para mi querido Primo Andy
Such a shame he didn't respond to the woman's question in regards to the intra American slave trade and how at the minimum hundreds of thousands of American Aborigines were displaced from their lands and taken to the Caribbean islands. Barbados, Bahamas, Jamaica, Antigua, Cuba, the split island Ayiti , Hispaniola jus to name a few.
And the Spanish till this day claim they brought more good to the Americas than harm...in Latin America, people don't like to talk about Spanish cruelty.
Talk, bolstered by graphic displays--graphs, maps, photos--illuminate lesser known aspects of the US Southwest beyond the troubling history of Settler Colonialism.
