Henry Morton Stanley (1841-1914) was a Welsh journalist and African explorer, famous for finding the lost David Livingstone in 1871. From 1874 to 1877, he explored the Congo River, sponsored in part by king Leopold II of Belgium.

The people who live around it. You won't find the name of the first person to lay eyes on it in any history book because that person was alive before books.

Giving credit to some white explorer for discovering a river is as disingenuous as it is ridiculous in the same way that people of European dissent like to say that Columbus discovered America.

No, he didn't. People were already here. The only thing that "discovered" America in 1492 was Small Pox.
