After healing tribes, battling epidemics, and gathering legends of Seven Cities, Estevanico died in a Zuni village while pressing toward Cibola. The journey spanned from Texas to Arizona with friar Marcos, ending in tragedy.
The passage recounts Estevanico’s legendary voyage to Arizona and New Mexico, his encounter with the Zuni, and their beliefs about Mexicans as black. It notes Zuni legends of his death and cites historical sources on Spain in America and early North American colonization.
Monroe N. Work argues in the Southern Workman that about 3.5 million Black Americans live in urban areas, with 500000 moving from rural areas in five years.
