Pear's Soap is a bar of soap that was made by Rudyard Kipling, who gave it to mostly Africans, to "whiten" their skin because he thought that everybody's skin should be white. Kipling had a nasty attitude towards the Africans and acted racist right in front of their own noses. He produced the soap out of African resources, and when he was finished, he brought them back to Africa and gave the soap to them so that they could "cleanse" themselves.

Africans Were Not Invited to the Berlin Conference

# data[].attributes.body
“Africans were not invited to the Berlin Conference, and their land claims were not considered at the conference" (European Document Analysis).  Europeans didn’t let the Africans to the Berlin Conference just because of their skin color and race. African culture was not accepted by the Europeans. In the conference, the different countries discussed about colonizing Africa, while Africans didn't even get a say in it.

Rudyard Kipling states that they need to teach the Africans new ways because they were "half-child, half-devil". What he means by this is that they need to tame the wild, for they are not mature nor civilized. This displays a racist attitude towards the Africans.

Europeans saw imperialism and colonialism as helping the Africans become more "civilized" like the Europeans. Although this is incredibly racist, it helped drive, or even justify, the Scramble for Africa.
