The article mentions "Leopold’s Anti-Slavery Conference". How does anti-slavery and Leopold II of Belgium go together? Isn't that the guy who is mainly remembered for many atrocities in Congo? 138.232.67.15 13:49, 22 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
Leopold II ran several sham conferences/organizations to cover up what he was doing in the Congo; this was another example of his doing that, just as he initially did with philanthropic cover stories. matt91486 14:42, 22 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
Re the previous two comments, the last sentence of the section describing his relationship to Leopold and the Congo makes no sense. Could someone familiar w/ the subject please clean this up? Thanks. Tapered (talk) 07:05, 27 September 2011 (UTC)Reply
I don't think this article is a stub article, I think it should probably be start class. Of course, I wrote much of it so I could be biased, but it's well referenced and comprehensive enough for start class in my mind. matt91486 16:27, 16 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
