Paper Summary:

In Joseph Conrad's classic tale, "Heart of Darkness", there are countless presentations of the African native peoples that can be considered racist both within their context and when examined independently of the story. It is often argued that the "racist" presentation of the Africans, however, was not intentional on Conrad's part but rather demonstrated the philosophy of the era in which Conrad was writing. However, this paper demonstrates that Conrad's presentation of the African peoples in Heart of Darkness was indeed racist, and intentionally so.
