He stood by all the deaths happening and the torture and didn't one time stop it or change it. Not only was he and evil man to the Congolese people he also had an expedition with 350 of his own men and they only came back with 100 men. He was a brutal murder and gruesome killer. Henry M.

This shows how cruel he was and how he didn't care for them. He just wanted territory and did whatever it took to claim that land. And he was ok if Congolese people were killed and abused. He might have been seen as a good man but was actually a terrible man who's priority was to kill and conquer land. Further showing why his atrocities were so bad because he lied to Congolese people and killed them.

The article Steve Braker Books says "There are two sides to the story; one being that Stanley was duped by King Leopold II and was not aware of what was to become of the poor Congolese, and two: Stanley wanted to get rich and climbing over dead Africans to get there was fine by him." This demonstrates that Henry M. Stanley tried to pose as being a man unaware of the Atrocities but he actually knew that wasn't true. He willingly stood by this appalling act and had no remorse for it. He had one thing in front of him from the start and that was to become rich and have power over the Congolese. He stole rubber, ivory and native materials with force.Additionally Henry M. Stanley could have stopped leopold or soldiers from killing the Congolese people but didn't. He was a liar and was the reason 10 million Congolese people died. He was an abominable man and was vile to the innocent congolese.
