Answer:  Bartolomé de Las Casas

Detail:

Bartolomé de Las Casas was a missionary from the Dominican order of friars.  He was also a historian who wrote the 3-volume work, <em>A History of the Indies, </em>spanning the history of the "Indies" region in the New World from Christopher Columbus' arrival in 1492 to about 1520.    Not only was Las Casas eager and zealous about teaching Christianity to the natives in the New World.  He was also a strongly vocal critic of the way Spanish conquistadors were abusing and enslaving Native Americans.  In his 1542 work, <em>A Brief Account of the Devastation of the Indies, </em>Las Casas wrote with horror concerning what he saw happening to the natives in the Indies:  "Into this sheepfold, into this land of meek outcasts there came some Spaniards who immediately behaved like ravening wild beasts, wolves, tigers, or lions that had been starved for many days. And Spaniards have behaved in no other way during the past forty years, down to the present time, for they are still acting like ravening beasts, killing, terrorizing, afflicting, torturing, and destroying the native peoples, doing all this with the strangest and most varied new methods of cruelty, never seen or heard of before."

There were many priests during the settlement of North American who wanted to convert Native Americans, although the most famous was perhaps John Williams, since he was the most outspoken.

in the text the author discusses some of the ways the first amendment has been interpreted. in the context of our current americ
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

This question is really geared more towards your own interpretation, so there isn't necessarily going to be a right or wrong answer. I would say that today the first amendment protects when people are speaking out against policies and general injustices in the American society today, and for instance, on social media I have seen people say "f trump and f america." The first amendment is protecting them, so that nobody can hold that statement against them and press charges. If we lived in russia, the russian secret police would find you, and kill you for that. Personally, I believe that if someone wanted to burn an american flag on their front lawn, and curse america, they should not be protected by the first amendment. that should be a crime. However, the first amendment does protect them, so there is nothing anyone could do about that legally.
