Remember Spaniards and Indians on Fourth

The Spaniards, at the time of the American Revolution, actually had more social freedoms than the 13 colonies/states. Treatment of slaves was less harsh and more defined under law. And, they weren’t “papist thugs.”

So, that’s your anti-jingoistic message for the Fourth of July this year, my American friends.
