Thanks a lot.

It’s not that the books should be censored. But Tintin’s adventures in Congo should not be targeted towards children. It should at least be limited to collectors editions and have a warning alerting reader’s of the book’s racist content.

On the fact that Hergé was neutral, simply recording what was happening, I disagree completely. As I hope I made clear in the article, Hergé was working for a fascist and racist publication. There’s nothing neutral about it. Le Petit Vingtième, under Father Vallez, was making colonialist and racist propaganda.
