What is Defense of Indigenous Rights in 1542 about?

The New Laws of 1542, enacted by Charles V, put an end to the enslavement of indigenous people in the Americas. They established that all indigenous people were free vassals and tributaries of the king, freed slaves whose masters did not have a legitimate title, and prohibited the enslavement of indigenous people in the future. Furthermore, they removed indigenous property from conquistadors who did not have a valid title and reduced the number of indigenous people.
