New Laws protecting Indigenous laborers were revoked within three years

Evidence

It would still take Las Casas twenty more years to win this victory for his charges. Altogether, it is written, he would make 14 trips between the Old and New Worlds during this time pursuing his mission (several of these trips were command performances since he was forced to return to Spain to answer accusations of treason). In the end, his victory would be short and meaningless. Charles V revoked the New Laws three years after their appearance. The natives of the conquered lands were already a vanishing presence. The survival of New Spain’s economy was already being transferred to new hands. — Cedric J. Robinson, Black Marxism_ The Making of the Black…, 633
