His wishes of gathering more resources and more global power for his country were met in a brutal fashion, mostly including blackmailing and torturing natives to force them to collect rubber. This horrific treatment of the native population continued for decades and Leopold attempted to prevent word of this spreading by having all of his personal records of mistreatment destroyed before his death.]]> 2019-02-19 19:47:01 UTC https://padlet.com/295273/mic5tw4wna9w/wish/332900875 295278 https://padlet.com/295273/mic5tw4wna9w/wish/332901420 2019-02-19 19:48:01 UTC https://padlet.com/295273/mic5tw4wna9w/wish/332901420 295278 https://padlet.com/295273/mic5tw4wna9w/wish/332903837 Marlow- some epic dude that once was a fresh water steamboat captain in the Congo.

Many people plot against him- considered problematic, yet he yields good results]]> 2019-02-19 19:52:40 UTC https://padlet.com/295273/mic5tw4wna9w/wish/332903837 keri_zhou https://padlet.com/295273/mic5tw4wna9w/wish/332910040 2019-02-19 20:01:23 UTC https://padlet.com/295273/mic5tw4wna9w/wish/332910040 295278 https://padlet.com/295273/mic5tw4wna9w/wish/333838391 Louie talked about how sibilence in the passage on page 40 combined with the imagery of the painting revealed to Marlow his first true insight into Kurtz's character. The light and dark imagery and the "s" sound created a conflict between the description Marlow has heard of Kurtz so far, and the deeper understanding of who Kurtz is as revealed to Marlow by the painting]]> 2019-02-21 19:19:48 UTC https://padlet.com/295273/mic5tw4wna9w/wish/333838391
