Description
Summary:The evangelization of the indigenous and spiritual assistance to the colonizers and Creoles, was a priority in the conquest and colonization of the Indies. The black slave was also evangelized but with different strategies, one of them was the brotherhood, which was installed in the churches and fulfilled an essential function giving the slave participation in religious and social events. For this reason, the objective of this research is to describe the brotherhoods of blacks, brunettes and mulattos that existed in the Cathedral of Santo Domingo, its composition and religious syncretism.
