Send forth the best ye breed—
Go, bind your sons to exile
To serve your captives' need;
To wait, in heavy harness,
On fluttered folk and wild—
Your new-caught sullen peoples,
Half devil and half child.
Take up the White Man's burden—
In patience to abide,
To veil the threat of terror
And check the show of pride;
By open speech and simple,
An hundred times made plain,
To seek another's profit
And work another's gain.

Burden- Something that is heavily loaded, as if you need to execute something, an example of this is completing school and the work that it gives
-------------------------------------------------------
2} ~ How does Kipling view those being imperialized? Is he correct in his description?
He feels that the men of America who are white need to get rid of the people who are of different color to take over another country. An example of this is, "your new-caught sullen people, half devil half child". He describes this in this way because the countries  that america are imperializing, the majority of people who live in those countries are people of color.
-------------------------------------------------------
3} ~ How would you characterize Kipling’s views of imperialism? Do you agree with Kipling’s
views? Explain.
I think Kipling has a very negative connotation of people of color. I do not agree with his views because slavery isn't okay and no race is superior to another one. 
-------------------------------------------------------
4}~ According to Kipling, and in your own words, what was the “White Man’s Burden?”
To Kipling the white mans burden was to dominate other races for economic gain.]]> 2018-10-04 15:48:30 UTC https://padlet.com/2045206/fuwlohuecsh8/wish/289218423 2045206 https://padlet.com/2045206/fuwlohuecsh8/wish/291307246 In this Pro-Imperialistic cartoon it's showing that countries are free for the taking and we can choose whichever ones we want.]]> 2018-10-10 15:26:35 UTC https://padlet.com/2045206/fuwlohuecsh8/wish/291307246 2045206 https://padlet.com/2045206/fuwlohuecsh8/wish/291307313 This Fake News is kind of like Yellow Journalism This is showing how Canada is "building a wall" like Donald Trump wants Mexico to pay to build the wall.

In the long run, imperialism has helped America survive and become better in many ways including economically. I wouldn't say imperialism is a good thing, but more of a necessary thing for a country to expand and gain more power, trade, and money.]]> 2018-10-19 03:25:46 UTC https://padlet.com/2045206/fuwlohuecsh8/wish/294676841
