The encomienda system

[@greenguitar731]

why do you guys need to have a conversation?

[@billysmith3399]

ikr i miss sal

[@curtcoller3632]

Because a "normal" conversation is more attractive for viewers - not this one.

I recently took an awesome introduction to the details of this era. I read a lot of missionary writings and it was so eye-opening and telling... The Pueblo Revolt of the 1600s was a singularly remarkable event when deeply looked-at. What a large swath of land that is involved in this harrowing and evolutionary period of history. Sorry, what I mean to say is that, my local community college put together an unbelievably detailed class on this and it warms my heart to see more of it coming from Khan! You folks are awesome.

[@patf14]

Hi I know you write your comment 3 years ago but do you happen to remember where you found those missionary writings?

[@utofbu]

Hey there! The writings were issued to me in PDFs if my memory serves me correctly. I know I archived them somewhere on my old comp. If I do happen to find them (after I transfer some hard drives to the new system), I will gladly share them if I am allowed to. I think a few were from Jstor and those would require mutual subscriptions (as Jstore is downright malicious to people that share their material). Let me get back to you, I will reply here when/if I recover them!

[@patf14]

utofbu hi! Thank you so much I appreciate your help

Have you got them?

@@shu9013 Hi, sorry for the kind of late response, I haven't gotten them yet.

[@joaocoelho1029]

In portuguese "encomendar" means roughly "to order", asking for a product to by it later. As when you come to a tailor and you have to order (encomendar) a suit for buying it when it's done. I don't know if this thinking is legitimate, but kinda makes sense. The encomiendero order (encomenda) tribute and the tribe has to somehow give it (except it won't get anything in return)

[@mr.josephbs]

that will work on my homework

[@williamalexander7154]

What video follows this one? I would assume the next video would be about the Atlantic Slave Trade. I'm interested in the next discussion about the growth of the arbitrary racial hierarchy in the Americas.

Can we have a native Spanish speaker teach these people who to say encomenderos correctly?

the video is very detailed. i would like to learn more but there is no part 2. no link or anything. how do you want people to learn more if there is no part 2? i am not willing to go back to atleast 6 years ago to find some video. please add link to part 2.

[@CATboss001]

I think it's kind of your job as a historian to be neutral of all things (as a scientist in general), but not that it is very bad here. But when you're saying someone in timeperiod 'x' is a good dude surrounded by bad dudes, I also think you should compare them to the mentality of said timeperiod, and not ours. Especially when you're teaching. Sorry for sounding mean, I love your history lessons!

[@leonardoochoaruiz2748]

I am a mestizo and I find your comment offensive... Just kidding, you're right 😄

[@BTypeGuy]

Even in that time period, there were humanitarians who thought the treatment of the Natives were evil and repugnant. Evil is evil, let's call it for what it is.

It's history, by definition it will always be bias

[@lenajulia2795]

@Kevin Harris yes, but he regretted it later

[@IkramDjabali-jy6yp]

So what is the difference between ancomeimd system and feudal system?

[@PrivateName_Swamp]

Not much really, but I will say that this was very anti-Spanish biased

[@noreaction1]

for the love of pronunciation, the emphasis is on the second to last syllable in "encomienda" and "encomenderos" and there is no emphasis on the second syllable at all

[@Antonio-gx6ji]

Why does some part of the video cut out in the middle of talking 😑

[@MaryvalePress]

Interesting that you don't point out that Bartolomé de las Casas became a Catholic priest. He also wasn't alone. How about Pedro de Córdoba, Antonio Montesino, and the whole Dominican order who excommunicated the Spanish for their treatment of the native peoples? Very selectively anti-Catholic.

[@halfdeqd]

i just wana finish my omework :((((

[@mitchellthurner5980]

Yeah... las Casas suggested replacing Native Americans with Africans or Jews... not so good

[@kaleomariz1000]

But he regretted this decision later from what I am told.

I learnt alot in class Abt this but this is lit when it's put like this

[@RajuRam-lt3lf]

Why are laughing during such serious things?

[@viracocha6093]

Because people apparently believe that the Indians were better off before the encomienda system than during and after it.

[@erlint]

​@@princessnaipie Isn't that exactly the same the Aztecs were doing, only the spaniards didn't demand mass human sacrifice for religious reasons? The spaniards were excessively brutal, but to say they were worse than the Aztecs is taking it a bit far.

[@indigenouspodcast2257]

@@erlint No, you’re taking it a bit too far. Aztecs didn’t go throughout the Americas enslaving people and brining intended diseases. Aztecs didn’t go to Spain and kidnap millions of Spaniards and bring them to Atzlan as slaves. Aztecs didn’t force natives to work in mines until they died. Aztecs didn’t bring in racial hierarchy systems. You should probably do some research before sounding foolish.

[@christiancolewan]

i need help understanding this phrase "triibute in kind", it says in my book that the people can pay tribute in money or in kind. i tried googling the phrase but no definition for the term.

[@cat_atouille]

i know its late but i still wanna add for others to see. "tribute" is like the tax they're paying to the encomenderos. they can pay using cash or in kind, means they can pay using forced labor, food, or their harvest, or any material the encomenderos will allow.

[@MrAzeni]

While this video was educational the brutality and human impact of this system was not expressed well. This was a brutal system of subjugation. Natives weren’t “protected” they were used and abused. The information is good but the tone is awful and even apologist at times on behalf of the Spaniards.

[@Jay-pe4gx]

huh? they clearly said they were abusive and killed some of them for not doing work
