The fabulous adventures of Tintin among blacks.

A very common among the Belgians and 'passion for comics . Several facades were painted in honor of famous comics of the past, and is' very common for a pub or a restaurant are decorated with cartoons. Above all, they are absolutely ubiquitous reproductions of Tintin tables. Herge ', the author of Tintin, was in fact Brussels (born in the district where I live, however).
I 'never loved Tintin when I was little, but with a view to know the country where live and where I am a loyal civil servant, I decided to read something this inescapable part of Belgian culture, and I left from "Tintin in the Congo, curious to see how the other was the perception of their colony at the time.
The dip in the mentality 'of the 30s and colonial' was one of the most 'big cultural shock I've ever had in recent times, probably because of the innocence of the medium.


Here Tintin takes a small local guide. Minou's comment causes a shudder in the twenty-first century reader, but that 'nothing yet.


At one point, Tintin's car stuck on a rail, get high-speed 'train African e. .. the train spatascia against the strong European car without a scratch it 'move it an inch.

The Congolese are clearly perceived as the beggars who have no desire to work. Knowing
of forced labor camps for indigenous , it is particularly ironic.

The white man prevails
physically on indigenous evil (the witch doctor of the tribe ', which will take Tintin' the place for popular acclaim after showing them that religion fetish blacks and 'just a hoax perpetrated by the sorcerer to keep them in darkness' and dominate the terror of the supernatural, where I will 're wondering, I doubt that Herge 'was an atheist, since he worked for the magazine for young people attached to a conservative Catholic newspaper - see Trivia at the end of post).

This scene seems particularly emblematic of
paternalistic colonialism (of which arguii time ago that the legacy 'is still alive in certain idiosyncrasies unconscious on the left). Enjoy the post of gooders of this scene: "master Tintin" (all the blacks turn to all white people as "master" in this comic) and 'animated by a sincere desire to bring home to their homeland and that little black' the distant Belgium (yes ', they are compatriots, ancorche' less civilized! and he helps them to become civilized), and begins to tell the geography.
Today I think that what is called "cultural genocide".


But it is not 'only in relation to people by skin color different from ours and that' change attitudes'. Tintin and 'in fact a big fan of big game hunting, and the thing and' fairly obvious as to be ever introduced by any statement such as "will take advantage 'to hunt! I really like hunting." I mean, 'you're in Africa, shoot any large animal moves, not there' need to explain it. Here
Tintin spotted an antelope (or other animal, I do not know) and some of the cartoons (which I'll spare you) continues to shoot but to see it still there '. The end of the comic scene:

I mean 'in practice has made a holocaust of antelopes.


Here I really appreciated the delicacy in saving the details of skinning.


not able to kill an animal and 'a real shame. Can not 'be tolerated that rhinoceros remains alive, and here's the clever and humorous, solution:

This scene alone harbor' to ban a cartoon in Sweden a few years later.

[Update] I put the package "lj-cut" on
kind request.

(Trivia: Herge 'start' his career designing for a national Catholic newspaper, headed by an abbot who took the photo of Mussolini on the office wall.)
