"Wallace characters such as District Commissioner Sanders can be taken to represent the values of colonial white supremacy in Africa, and now viewed by liberals as deeply racist and paternalistic. His writing has been attacked by some for its conception of Africans as stupid children who need a firm hand. Sanders, for example, pledges to bring 'civilization' to "half a million cannibal folk". George Orwell called Wallace a 'bully worshiper' and 'proto-fascist', though many critics conceived Wallace more as a populist writer who wrote for the market of the time.
