Document 1

Source: Prempeh I, Ashanti leader, response to a British offer of
protectorate status, West Africa, 1891.

The suggestion that Ashanti in its present state should come and enjoy the
protection of Her Majesty the Queen of England and Empress of India is a matter
of very serious consideration. I am pleased to announce that we have arrived at the
conclusion that my kingdom of Ashanti will never commit itself to any such
policy. Ashanti must remain as of old and at the same time remain friendly with
all White men.

Document 2

Source: Menelik II, emperor of Ethiopia, letter to Great Britain, France,
Germany, Italy, and Russia, 1891.

I have no intention at all of being an indifferent spectator, if the distant Powers
hold onto the idea of dividing up Africa. For the past fourteen centuries Ethiopia
has been an island of Christians in a sea of Pagans.

Since the All-Powerful has protected Ethiopia up until now, I am hopeful that He
will keep and enlarge it also in the future, and I do not think for a moment that He
will divide Ethiopia among the distant Powers. In the past, the boundary of
Ethiopia was the sea. Without our use of force and without the aid of the
Christians, our boundary on the sea fell into the hands of the Muslims. Today we
do not pretend to be able to recover our seacoast by force; but we hope that the
Christian Powers, advised by our Savior, Jesus Christ, will restore our seacoast
boundary to us, or give us at least a few ports along the coast.
Document 3

Source: Mojimba, African chief, describing a battle in 1877 on the
Congo River against British and African mercenaries, as told to a
German Catholic missionary in 1907.

And still those bangs went on; the long sticks spat fire, pieces of iron whistled
around us, fell into the water with a hissing sound, and our brothers continued to
fall. We ran into our village and they ran after us. We fled into the forest and flung
ourselves on the ground.

When we returned that evening our eyes beheld fearful things: our brothers, dead,
bleeding, our village plundered and burned, and the river full of dead bodies. You
call us wicked men, but you White men are much more wicked! You think
because you have guns you can take away our land and our possessions. You have
sickness in your heads, for this is not justice.


Document 4

Source: White Man’s Burden 1899
by the British poet Rudyard Kipling, a poem in response to the
American take over of the Phillipines during the Spanish-American
War.
Take up the White Man's burden--
Send forth the best ye breed--
Go bind 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.
Document 5
Letters from Pastor John G. Paton to the British Parliament regarding
annexation of the South Sea Islands (1883)

For the following reasons we think the British government ought now to take possession of
the New Hebrides group of the South Sea islands, of the Solomon group, and of all the
intervening chain of islands from Fiji to New Guinea:

1. Because she has already taken possession of Fiji in the east, and we hope it will soon be
known authoritatively that she has taken possession of New Guinea at the northwest,
adjoining her Australian possessions, and the islands between complete this chain of islands
lying along the Australian coast.

2. The sympathy of the New Hebrides natives are all with Great Britain, hence they long for
British protection, while they fear and hate the French, who appear eager to annex the
group, because they have seen the way the French have treated the native races in New
Caledonia, the Loyalty Islands, and other South Sea islands…

…For the above reasons, and others that might be given, we sincerely hope and pray that
you will do all possible to get Victoria and the other colonial governments to help and unite
in urging Great Britain at once to take possession of the New Hebrides group. Whether
looked at in the interests of humanity, or of Christianity, or commercially, or politically, sure
it is most desirable that they should at once be British possessions.

                                                                  American possession of
                                                                  Philippines. (1899)

                                                    influence in China by the European
                                                    and Japanese powers.




Document 8
John Stuart Mill’s essay on Why Colonies and Colonization (1848)

If it is desirable, as no one will deny it to be, that the planting of colonies should be
conducted, not with an exclusive view to the private interests of the first founders, but
with a deliberate regard to the permanent welfare of the nations afterwards to arise from
these small beginnings; such regard can only be secured by placing the enterprise, from its
commencement, under regulations constructed with the foresight and enlarged views of
philosophical legislators; and the government alone has power either to frame such
regulations, or to enforce their observance.
