What Wikipedia says

Sublimis Deus (English: The sublime God; erroneously cited as Sublimus Dei) is a Papal bull promulgated by Pope Paul III on 2 June 1537, which forbids the enslavement of the Indigenous peoples of the Americas (called "Indians of the West and the South") and all other Indigenous people who could be discovered later or previously known.
