  2. Opener What two new belief systems gave rise to ideas of European superiority and “justified” the Scramble for Africa? What three main groups clashed for power in South Africa? Who was NOT invited to the Berlin Conference? What mistake did European powers make in regards to African ethnic groups? What were the two main European countries that shaped the future of African regions?

  3. The White Man’s Burden:(Summarize in your notes!) A phrase used to justify European imperialism in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries; it is the title of a poem by Rudyard Kipling. The phrase implies that imperialism was motivated by a high-minded desire of whites to uplift people of color.

  4. The White Man’s Burden • Rudyard Kipling • Take up the White Man’s burden— • Send forth the best ye breed— • Go send 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 • Take up the White Man’s burden— • And reap his old reward: • The blame of those ye better • The hate of those ye guard— • The cry of hosts ye humour • (Ah slowly) to the light: • "Why brought ye us from bondage, • “Our loved Egyptian night?” • Take up the White Man’s burden- • Have done with childish days- • The lightly proffered laurel, • The easy, ungrudged praise. • Comes now, to search your manhood • Through all the thankless years, • Cold-edged with dear-bought wisdom, • The judgment of your peers!
