My life as a Taino

to flee

Dear journal i dont know how to start, It all started when our people arrived in a carribean island as a taino we called the island Guanahani but the spanish immediately claimed the island as property spain and renamed it san salvador.We didnt have no weapons that was no good we could of be enslaved easily but it didnt happen thats were all the drama appeared, Columbus order us to bring him gold as taxes nobody liked it went crazy taino women left there infants anywere on the ground and started to flee like desperate people. The tainos rebelled agaut they didnt do anyinst columbus's policies, but the spanish captured the rebells with brutal attacks unlish the dogs, bit them to death, grabed the infants and threw them agains the rocks to death, hung them before they killed them there was a priest next to them and pray for there soul could be safe.The spanish were down to burn people alive they didn't care, also their was chopping heads anywere in the body was chopped.One last thing the king and the queen from spain was told they didnt do anything about it for the fact that they were intresting for the gold and land, they ignore it, so most of the tainos were crusified to death that was most of the horrible,horrible sad in history.
