Kill Christopher Columbus!
So, in 2075 narco magnate Tupac Shakur the IV starts a research lab following an unwitting experiment in backwards time travel. Taking a copy of the original manuscripts and archival records of Christopher Columbus, he gets a bunch of his unwary latin american scholars and activists and sends back in time to 1450 to prepare the “indians” to resist the conquest, and kill Christopher Columbus! An artist/activist, a historian, a guerrilla fighter and a modern day machi awaken in what is now known as Cuba, in the mid 14th century. With them are their phones, laptops, army gear and history books and document scans contained in their phone memory. Slowly they realise their mission is to somehow counter the quickly incoming colonisation from europe, and prepare the peoples of South America for the boats full of conquistadors. The locals have a better idea: Kill Christopher Columbus, and slaughter all people who arrive seeking to profit from their lands. When news of the strange foreigners who claim to be from the future and their strange artifacts reaches the Aztec kingdom they too grow interested in their message. One of the adventurers reveals in flashbacks that they actually were the inventors of the technology, that it could be recreated, but only by sending people back, not forward, and that should the authorities ever discover them, they should expect more people from the future. This is what happens in season 2: the uncolonies resulting from the non-conquest are then attacked by future colonists seeking to revise history back or even worse than before. The uncolonists also have some tricks and wishes of their own. Season 3: back to the future. But for now, an episode list: Ep 1: A first mixed race adventurer awakens back in time with a bunch of strange futuristic gadgets, and some hostile indians on his trail.
