This Man Killed 10 Million Africans in a few years: King Leopold II

In this video, take a look at King Leopold II, the man who killed 10 Million Africans in 23 years.

The actions of King Leopold II of Belgium in the Congo Free State during the late 19th and early 20th centuries were simply horrific. Under the guise of "civilizing" and "Christianizing" the people of Congo, Leopold created a brutal regime of forced labor, mutilation, and murder that resulted in the deaths of millions of Congolese. We examine the details of the atrocities committed by Leopold's agents, the role of Western powers in supporting his regime, and the eventual exposure of the atrocities to the world. This is a disturbing but important story of colonialism, greed, and the fight for justice.
