Enslaving And Massacring are only a couple of the negative things Columbus did to the natives when he first arrived. He treated them and even his own crew very terribly, poorly, and badly. So much so that his own brother wanted to go rise up against him. He enslaved thousands of natives and harshly and terribly punished them for every small mistake and misunderstanding they made.
