During the discussion, an idea was that King Leopold II continued to expand on his methods by isolating the ethnic groups from the reporters and using weapons to manipulate the Africans to work. As he continued the construction of the Congo, he made sure to censor any writing pieces or newspapers about his plans. A question is will King Leopold II go bankrupt or unable to manage the finances, and if so, what will he do? Also, will King Leopold II's plans in the Congo be revealed to the Europeans?
Group discussion: I felt that with having a smaller group, I felt more comfortable sharing my ideas, and I am able to analyze with a few responses than a whole group. Also, we felt everyone was able to participate whereas in a bigger group, there is a possibility that only a few people would not speak. One way to improve the discussions are to have questions that can really expand your thinking. However, the questions were good!
