American Imperialism around the turn of the century was not always justified. It was in some cases but not in most cases.

"The White Man's Burden" analysis questions

1) A burden is someones heavy load.
2) Kipling is a pro-imperialist. He is not correct when he describes the imperialized people as "Half devil and half child".
3) I do not agree with Kipling views of imperialsm because he is very racist and not open to actually understand the countries America imperialized and the people in it.
4) To Kipling, "The White Man's Burden" was to say how the United States should work hard to help others. But to me, "The White Man's Burden" is racist

Get rid of the white peoples load
Bring the best
Banish your sons
Serve your prisoners needs
Stand with heavy equipment
With the people in nature
The people are grumpy
and evil and imature
Get rid of the white peoples load
Patience to obey
To hide from the terror
and not be prideful
By stating your opinion
Over and over again
To want what others have
and work harder

President Obama Bans the Pledge of Allegiance From Schools

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
President Obama has issued an executive order banning the Pledge of Allegiance in U.S. schools.

Apparently having run out of anything remotely approaching an original thought, in August 2016 fake news publishers fell back on the old chestnut of reporting that President Obama had issued an executive order banning the Pledge of Allegiance in U.S. schools (for the umpteenth time):

Early this morning, President Obama made what could very well prove to be the most controversial move of his presidency with the signing of Executive Order 13738, which revokes the federal government's official recognition of the Pledge of Allegiance. Under the new order, it is now illegal for any federally funded agency to display the pledge or for any federal employee to recite, or encourage others to recite, the pledge while on duty. This law also applies to federal contractors and other institutions that receive federal funding such as public schools. Individuals who violate this order can face fines of up to $10,000 and up to one year in federal prison.

During the press conference, the President explained his decision was based on a personal belief that the language used in the pledge is "divisive" and "contrary to America's deepest held values."

There was nothing to this report, which was just another recycled hoax promulgated by a malware-spreading fake news site that illegally appropriates the trademarks of legitimate news organizations such as ABC News.
