Description

Explore the untold history of the humanitarian movement against Leopold's colonization of the Congo. While the movement originated in Europe, this work reveals how it relied on African input at every stage. Individuals and groups from the upper Congo River basin made dangerous journeys and made significant sacrifices to provide evidence of atrocities to missionaries, international investigators, and colonial authorities. This book combines deep archive research with modern academic discussions. It examines the connections between imperialism and humanitarianism, while addressing themes of trauma, witnessing, and postcolonial studies. By focusing on the recovery of colonial archives, the text provides a necessary perspective on how African voices contributed to the fight for reform. It is an essential read for those studying world history, colonial studies, and the complexities of humanitarian movements.
