You are the senior foreign correspondent for the British Times Herald. Even though you and your colleagues have been assigned to the foreign desk in South Africa, you are encouraged to travel throughout the continent of Africa. The year is 1880. You have been in South Africa for two months and now you are ready to begin to fulfill your assignment. The Editor in Chief has assigned you and your colleagues to write a series of feature editorials on Imperialism in Africa. Since it is the job of a newspaper reporter to inform its readers, the Board of Directors of the British Times Herald has given you an unlimited expense account to investigate this controversial topic. Your editorials will help readers to arrive at their own conclusions about whether or not the British Empire should continue with the policy of imperialism. Public opinion is fast becoming an important factor in British politics. Politicians and the public alike take notice of what is being reported and written in newspapers. |
