<em>"Heart of Darkness"</em>, written by Joseph Conrad in 1889 in England, has been criticized as racist <em>"for the way the author describes poorly every person he writes about and miscast the Europeans as the victims of colonization", </em>according to Nigerian Author Chinua Achebe.
In his essay <em>“An Image of Africa: Racism in Conrad’s Heart of Darkness” </em>(1977), the Nigerian author commented that the vision of Conrad was as racist as other African stories on the 19th century.
Another argument the author expresses is that the book emphasizes Europe’s idea of superiority over Africa.
That is why some people consider "Heart of Darkness" as racist.

Answer:
- The discovery of the French Nicolas Leblanc and Michel Chevreul on how to make soaps.
- The end of the luxury products tax on soap.
Explanation:
In 1800 the soap became a popular product widely used in practically all purposes. In addition to the concepts of hygiene and cleanliness having increased at that time, the discovery of the French Nicholas Leblanc and Michael Chevreul about the manufacture of soap, allowed this product to be seen in the markets in a more recurrent way. This is because the soap was laboriously manufactured, with difficult ingredients, however these two Frenchmen managed to develop an alternative manufacture that was fast and effective, allowing the soap to be made available to everyone.
In addition, it was during this period that the soap stopped being taxed as a luxury item, which left it with affordable prices for all families.
