I think the imperialism tried to be justified, by the people who thought America was perfect and other countries and citizens should be like the US. But the actions the United States did to imperialist the rest of the world was unjustifiable.

Even in our politics and news stories, "Some of those stories—including false scoops about Pope Francis endorsing Trump and Hillary Clinton selling weapons to ISIS—went viral on Facebook in the final months of the election. Overwhelmingly, the stories tended to favor Trump." https://www.cnn.com/2018/08/23/politics/donald-trump-fox-news/index.html

This cartoon is reflective of American imperialism because Uncle Sam's "new suit" represents the new land that the United States has taken over. Since there is so much materials to make the suit, it represents how much we need to achieve the goal of controlling the world. The towels behind McKinley represents the territories the U.S. has conquered. I also think President McKinley is standing on his tip-toes because America is becoming o large that soon he might not have the power needed to rule the nation.

Imperialism is exerting control over another nation by colonial acquisition trade, political, and economic policies/religion.

1. A burden would be something you are committed to but you are not necessarily wanting to deal with it. For example a school loan you have to pay off.
2. Kipling in his poem views those being imperialism as half devil have child. He is not correct in his description because these are human beings who are not all the same. He views himself and america and the savor and as colored people and their countries as helpless or  weak that American needs to change.
3. I think Kipling's view of imperialism is racist and over dramatic. The countries American needs to "fix" probably don't want a country who yes is more stable, change everything about them.
4.According to Kipling, the "White Man's Burden" is American feeling the need to help since they thing they are the best county. Even though the US still had their own issues
