A Spanish treatment of the Native Americans was poor. Spanish explorers considered the natives inferior. Consequently, they forcibly converted natives to Christianity, confined them to slavery and murdered them.

<u>Explanation: </u>

The United States government, in an attempt to limit the negative word being spread about the functioning of the government, expanded the girth of the Espionage Act of 1917 to include anti-government speech and published writings into the list of crimes under the said act.
