America's 16th President was Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln was elected in 1860 and served until he was assassinated by John Wilkes Booth in 1865.
Lincoln is famous for his leadership during the Civil War, his eloquent speeches, and the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. He is largely considered one of America's greatest leaders along with George Washington and Franklin Roosevelt.
He was an advocate of colonialism, and George Orwell called him a prophet of British imperialism, while still defending him from the attacks of those who declared him a fascist. Kipling is still viewed by many as imperialist and racist. His "Jungle Book", which is part of a compulsory editorial, is considered by many critics to be racist.
Explanation:
- In line with the general beliefs of the time, Kipling believed that people of European heritage had better educational conditions, generally better living conditions, and that since they already knew Christianity, they should spread his message.
- At first glance, it was clear to him that the <em>"tawdry rule of kings", </em>a system in which the natives obey and enslave, does not work. The natives were constantly rebelling and a picture of them as <em>"half devil and half child" </em>was created.
- Yet the fact remains that Europeans thought their value system and way of life were better and should be imposed on unenlightened nations.
