link to the poem since I would have said White Mans Burden by Kipling
Which poem be this?
I want to know of this racist poem that he wrote.
It was a 1912 poem called
On the Creation of Niggers:
"When, long ago, the gods created Earth
In Jove’s fair image Man was shaped at birth.
The beasts for lesser parts were next designed;
Yet were they too remote from humankind.
To fill the gap, and join the rest to Man,
Th’Olympian host conceiv’d a clever plan.
A beast they wrought, in semi-human figure,
Filled it with vice, and called the thing a Nigger."
