This slave code is quoted in the book "What white people can do next"(ISBN: 9780141996738) as the origin of the writing into law of the concept of race, and specifically, whiteness, as a way of separating indentured white workers from the black slaves after a series of slave revolts. This also shows how the two empires - spanish and british, had different ways of seeing this. In the Spanish system the Valladolid trial showed that indigenous people were in fact human - although the trial was not conclusive you would see conquistadors shouting out from their boat or even finding translators to read out a kind of contract that gave them the chance to adopt christianity and servitude of their own volition thus avoiding death. The result was forced mestizaje and a very powerful church and processes of "reeducation". In the early days of the peru virreinato, christian black slaves who had integrated were actually judged to be superior to the "wild slaves" and the indigenous people. According to the barbados slave code however, and to the nature of the british empire's subjugation of people on the other hand, black slaves are not even human, and can therefore be treated as goods. 86.180.161.255 (talk) 11:21, 31 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
