And this is the African-Spanish conquistador and indian-slave-owner who has been elevated as a historical figure now in Black History in the USA. Much like Christopher Columbus to the Italian-Americans. We will see how this story will continue to erase the Indigenous History in the USA or be used to perpetuate Anti-Indianness sentiments.

Other black Africans found their way into Spanish society rather than slavery. Many joined the Conquest as soldiers, some in exchange for freedom, others for financial compensation. Sometimes they enjoyed rewards like the Spaniards got, including land, official jobs, and pensions. Often they had to plead their own case in written petitions. The Crown usually acknowledged their petitions, but didn't always grant them. Regardless of Spain's reward to them, they all received their share of the loot taken from the Native Americans."

- It has a section about the Treaty and Pope Alexander VI two bulls issues on 4th of May 1493:
"The 1492 discovery of the New World by Spain rendered desirable a delimitation of the Spanish and Portuguese spheres of exploration. Thus dividing the world into two exploration and colonizing areas seemed appropriate. This was accomplished by the Treaty of Tordesillas (7 June 1494) which modified the delimitation authorized by Pope Alexander VI in two bulls issued on 4 May 1493. The treaty gave Portugal all lands which might be discovered east of a meridian drawn from the Arctic Pole to the Antarctic, at a distance of 370 leagues (1,800 km) west of Cape Verde. Spain received the lands west of this line."
