The correct answer is His main purpose was to give an accurate and detailed account of American history from the victim's point of view.

According to him, the journey to civilization had many negative things and monstrosities committed, so it was necessary to understand the victims and not only praise the conquerors who got people where they are now. He wanted to write a people's history, and not a victor's history.
