In the 1400s, Portugal began capturing and trading <u>ENSLAVED</u> human beings in Africa.

Explanation:

  • The transatlantic slave trade began during the 15th century when Portugal, and subsequently other European kingdoms, were finally able to expand overseas and reach Africa.
  • Portugal came to Africa seeking resources. To fuel their energy needs they started mining for coal. To build their factories and other buildings, the colonists and their slaves mined for metals. Missionaries were also sent to Africa from Portugal
  • Slavery in Portugal occurred since before the country's formation. During the pre-independence period, inhabitants of the current Portuguese territory were often enslaved and enslaved others.
  • People wishing to purchase slaves in Portugal had two sources, the royal slaving company, the Casa da Guiné, or from slave merchants who had purchased their slaves through the Casa de Guiné to sell as retail.
  • During transport to Portugal, slaves were fastened and chained with manacles, padlocks, and rings around their necks.
  • The Portuguese first began to kidnap people from the west coast of Africa and to take those they enslaved back to Europe.

Answer:

It would be futile to try to recognize or refute any of the poem's appearances of bigotry against non-white people because it is so common, ingrained, and over-the-top.However, it's worth noting how Kipling's bigotry blinded him to the truth of white imperialists—and, one may argue, to the white race—that "The White Man's Burden" so reveres. There is no truthful experience of colonization or imperialism that can characterize European or American imperialism's motivations or consequences as being inspired by selfless benevolence or having solely positive effects.From the devastation and enslavement of indigenous peoples in the Americas to the slave trade that developed out of European colonialism in Africa, to the uniquely rapacious and corrupt activities of the Belgian Congo, to the profit, strength, and national pride that Britain gained from its empire, on which it gloatingly exulted "the sun never set," white imperialism was never solely motivated by self-interest.
