here is some stuff i found if you hav the time you can read it and put it in your own words Slavery Marlow very often tells us about the life in the Congo, the scenery, the people and their behavior. So we also hear about the slaves' appalling fate. As we know from history, slave traders attacked the natives' villages, caught the defenseless people and sold them to companies, who used them for various labors. Following, Marlow tells us about his impressions of the building of a railway: "A slight clinking behind me made me turn my head. Six black men advanced in a file, toiling up the path … each had an iron collar on his neck, and all were connected together with a chain whose bights swung between them, rhythmically clinking."1 Obviously, the whites are very afraid of the blacks, so they think they have to keep their power in chains. That makes Marlow think of a tug of war, where he has seen prisoners, also tied up. He remarks "these men could by no stretch of imagination be called enemies".2 The black slaves are not treated as human beings, they were just tools of a big system of maximization of profits. The white conquerors had no restraints when they were exploiting a country and its people. Later, the revenge would be the total deleting of its resources, and the hen laying golden eggs is killed. So Kurtz is the death of the company's Congo business: "…the manager said afterwards that Mr. Kurtz's methods had ruined the district."3 For a short time, he has brought the most ivory, but then, all elephants are rooted out. The idea of imperialism On the one hand the word "imperialism" means the period of colonization of African and Asian countries by European states, the USA and Japan in the 19th century, on the other hand it means an idea that was disseminated since the beginning of the modern times around the 16th century: The people of the mighty European countries thought to be the first race of the world. With new inventions, like new ships, printing, weapons, Europe was superior to the other continents. Driven by the church's idea of mission, the need for resources and greed for gold, first the Spanish and the Portuguese, later all important countries started to take over and exploit less developed countries. The thought of being the superior race played an important role. Many scenes and dialogues in Heart of Darkness show this arrogance. The relation between whites and blacks turns into a relation between dominators and dominated. Every attempt to change this situation is seen as a treason and gives the right to revenge: "…these heads were the heads of rebels."4 Kurtz had not any restraints in retribution of his domination. To save order and his power, he showed the penalty for everyone who fought against him, he exhibited the decapitated rebels' heads. An important fact is that Kurtz didn't have many white bodyguards, but blacks who were fully enslaved to him. This splitting of the native people was his most important weapon against all revolutions.
