Explain the history of The Democratic Republic of Congo: its rulers, how it came under Belgian rule, and its fight for independence from

Belgium

The period of conflict and political upheaval in  the Republic of Congo is known as Congo Crisis. It began immediately when it got freedom from Belgium and Joseph Desire Mobutu became its dictator, during the crisis he was serving as Chief of staff of the Army. The Congo crisis was an indirect conflict during  the Cold War in which  Belgium and United states supported Mobutu.  More than 90,000 people were killed in the crisis and Mobutu seized power from president Kasavubu in 1965.

The Belgian Congo, French Congo Belge, was the previous settlement in Africa, ruled by Belgium from 1908 until 1960. It was established by the Belgian parliament to supplant the past, exclusive Congo Free State, after worldwide shock over maltreatment there brought weight for supervision and responsibility.

The official Belgian frame of mind was paternalism: Africans were to be thought about and prepared as though they were youngsters. They had no job in enactment, yet customary rulers were utilized as operators to gather charges and enroll work; uncooperative rulers were dismissed. In the late 1950s, when France and the United Kingdom worked with their states to get ready for freedom, Belgium still depicted the Congo as an ideal place that is known for parent-child connections among Europeans and Africans.

music always has an important role in culture and societies, infact for example rock’n roll music has conditioned different areas of pop culture above all in the 60s. in the modern american society its role is different.

unfortunately many think about how some unfortunate events happened to the columbine high school shootings can be related to rock music just because the teenagers involved listened to this kind of music.

i think that we can valorize the change to take refuge in this genre of music to keep on in everyday life, teenagers are comfortable when they can listen to a song about a specific problem. realizing that someone else is living your personal drama too can them to feel less lonely nowadays.
