King Leopold Part Four-He Had But Two Dreams

Today we wrap up the story of King Leopold II! He sells the Congo the Belgian government, finally dies, and Belgium continues to completely desecrate the Congo for another 50 years. We get into Morel and Casements continuing activism and the small victories they gained, as well as how well the stories and history have, or more accurately have not, been preserved. This was a tough subject, but let us know if you have any suggestions for future topics! Sources: King Leopold's Ghost: A Story of Greed, Terror, and Heroism in Colonial Africa by Adam Hochschild Send us a text!
