For the third Friday of National Native American Heritage Month 2023, this week’s Text is a reading on Spain in the New World along with its accompanying vocabulary-building and comprehension worksheet. I think the effect on indigenous peoples of the arrival of Spanish explorers, then the conquistadors that succeeded them, is obvious and in no need of belaboring here. Put another way, remember that the Aztecs, Mayas, and Incas were indigenous populations–and that the conquistadors’ legacy of abuse of indigenous populations persists: I offer you, as one egregious example, the late and loathsome Efrain Rios Montt.
