    Rudyard Kipling was a liberal imperialist widely known for "The White Man's Burden" which mixed exhortation to the British Empire with sombre warnings of the costs involved, when imperialists within the United States were about to colonise the Philippines. The OP's poem is falsely attributed to the English poet and it's also written in modern English that does not suit his grandiose style, which makes it likely to be a modern invention.

    It was repugnant either way.

    :roll: So you're arguing for racism? Or because I'm white I can't state that we shouldn't judge people by their skin color? Okay, let your parents on so the adults can talk.

    :roll:

    I live in a non-white area of my town. Most of my neighbors are immigrants from Africa, the ME, and Eastern Europe.

    So you approve the black on white crime.
    And you think that whites should continue to sit on their hands and be politically correct.

    Thanks for sharing your subjective opinion.

    I'm arguing for whites to have as much of a racial identity as all other minority groups. Only whites are pressured into feeling like you do. Other races can be proud of themselves.

    Have fun with that.

    True, but behavior seems to be color-coded.

    Or he will mess on you!

    Nothing but whining unless society changes his diaper!

    A modern day "Saxon" displaying his best attribute!

    I think all racism is deplorable and I denounce all racists, regardless of their skin color.

    I do. I have good neighbors.

    I am not talking about your mythic aryan race. Explanation was to convey the origin of term
    Anglo-Saxon. Flap about aryanism is touted by the Military Channel. As to Nazi "paganism"
    good investigation will revel that Hitler ordered it essentially suppressed. Germany was a Christian
    country and he well understood the PR implications. The term Aryan is frequently used in publications
    emanating from middle east. Youtube "Aryans of Asia."

    Goods sites available on races of Europe, some quite technical.

    Third Term is right on the money. This is just another piece of white supremacist propaganda putting fictional words into the mouth of a historical literary figure, they do it with Orwell as well. Anyway for anyone who likes to privilege the Saxons over their Norman conquerors you might like to know that under the Normans slavery, which had been practised by the English (ie Saxons in Britain) before the 1066 invasion, was outlawed.

    good luck with that but most people are too ashamed to associate with saxons or even be regarded as one, I think you'll have more success as a viking, they tend to have more respect.

    I believe we merely need to introduce them to cute Norman chics.

    Which is a bit of a shame really. Saxons are a real mixed bag. In some ways the quintessential barbarian, in others a very forward thinking culture, that probably met the end before its time.

    I'd just like to put a word in for another similar ethnic group who tagged along with those North Germanic peoples when they moved into Britain - the Jutes. Too often overlooked. Okay, they were unreconstructed, violent little buggers like their mates the Saxons and Angles, but let's not forget they were there.
