An imperialistic poem published in McClure's Magazine in February of 1899, By Rudyard Kipling. Born in British India in 1865, Rudyard Kipling was educated in England before returning to India in 1882, where his father was a museum director and authority on Indian Arts and Crafts. Thus Kipling was thoroughly immersed in Indian culture: by 1890 he had published in English about 80 stories and ballads previously unknown outside India. As a result of financial misfortune, from 1892-96 he and his wife, the daughter of an American publisher, lived in Vermont, where he wrote the two Jungle Books. After returning to England, he published "The White Man's Burden" in 1899, an appeal to the United States to assume the task of developing the Philippines, recently won in the Spanish-American War. As a writer, Kipling perhaps lived too long: by the time of his death in 1936, he had come to be reviled as the poet of British Imperialism, though being regarded as a beloved children's book author. Today he might yet gain appreciation as a transmitter of Indian culture to the West.
"The White Man's Burden" was written by Rudyard Kipling, a British poet and novelist. The poem was published in 1899 and reflects the imperialistic mindset of the time, promoting the idea that it was the duty of the white man to civilize and educate non-white peoples in colonies.

social Darwinism is taht white people are the superior race and they can use you in any way and are better. white mans burden is that it is the white person's duty to teach you how to be civilized and how to be like them.
