IF ONE MORE BOT ANSWERS OR SOMEONE WITH SOMETHING THAT ISN'T THE ANSWER TO SAY, I WILL EXPLODE. I originally asked this question for 100 points, but yall ruined that for yourselves. This is why we can't have nice things.

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 harness,
On fluttered folk and wild--
Your new-caught, sullen peoples,
Half-devil and half-child.
-Rudyard Kipling, 1898


We’ve take up the white man’s burden
Of ebony and brown;
Now will you kindly tell us Rudyard,
How we may put it down?
-New York World (1899) Quoted in Thomas A. Bailey, A Diplomatic History of the American People, 8th ed. (NY: Appleton Century Crofts, 1969), 478.

Use the above excerpts to answer a, b, and c below.

b. Briefly explain how some would use the response in the New York World to oppose American expansion between 1890 to 1945

c. Briefly explain the event in US History between 1890 and 1945 that generated these two points of view.

B. Rudyard depicted "The White Man's Burden" as the racial justification for Western expansion. Thomas Bailey criticizes Rudyard's notion that the white race must be in authority. He further questions Rudyard as to why imperialism is necessary.

Someone may use Bailey's argument to explain why they think American expansion is unethical. The basis of American expansion was to gain territory, and to bring the "savage" people into civilization.

C. Between 1890 and 1945, the United States was involved in the Spanish-American War, which resulted in the annexation of the Philippines, Puerto Rico, and Guam. The United States deemed the Fillipinos as too "uncivilized" to govern themselves.
