Little Barcelona

This statue sorta bummed me out once I realized what it was depicting. Sitting in a courtyard skatespot the locals called "little Barcelona" it shows a Christian missionary "civilizing' a native Amazonian Indian. Amazing how converting a harmless, peaceful culture to the warring, greedy ways of Christianity is considered "civil".
