Aah! A book! But really, I tried to make my point very clear. It's not that there's no info out there. Sweeping something under the rug doesn't mean the dust stopped existing, just that it's not immediately apparent and most people won't notice it. Ask a random person to list if they heard of King Leopold, the Congo genocide, etc. and see how many have heard the names before, let alone understand what's behind. Sure there's a Wiki page with details but the magic of rewriting history is not in deleting the truth but in making it uninteresting and obscure. And that allows people the assumption that nothing like this could have ever happened.
