Details
Gaspar Fernández (Portuguese: Gaspar Fernandes) (born c. 1577 in Bungo, Japan), also known as Gaspar Japón, was a Portuguese slave of Japanese descent, once briefly in the service of the Portuguese merchant Rui Pérez. He was kidnapped by a fellow countryman in 1585 and sold to Pérez, whom he would come to accompany amid his time in the Philippines. Alongside his master, Fernández embarked upon a voyage to Mexico, where Pérez was to face trial due to suspicion of secretly practicing Judaism. Fernández would testify in his favor posthumously, and was ultimately able to gain his freedom by virtue of his identification with Native Americans, who were legally exempt from slavery.
