St Martin of Porres, 1639
Another very interesting person who I'd never heard of. A mixed-race friar from Peru, he is listed as "patronage African-Americans, against rats, barbers, bi-racial people, poor people, public education, public health." (I assume teh only one he's actually against is rats) I think this one might be a Guardian reader. This image is from Portland, Oregon.
