Read the following excerpt from British poet Rudyard Kipling's The White Man's Burden, written in 1899. How does it relate to the European
imperialism of the time?
Take up the White Man's burden
Send forth the best ye breed
Go bind your sons to exile
To serve your captives' need;
To wait in heavy hamess,
On fluttered folk and wild
Your new caught, sullen peoples,
Half-devil and half child.
- Rudyard Kipling
