Bellwork: 3/7/18 What is the location of the image? What elements in the painting point to that location? The painting is set in India. The clues are the elephant, the architecture of the large gate in the left middle ground, and the sepoys marching alongside. How does the painting on page 878 reflect imperialism? The British couple on the leading elephant are the viceroy of India and his wife. This painting represent the British Raj. The front elephant is draped in gold, while the elephants of the Indian leaders are not. The British officials also have more foot escorts. Read the first paragraph only on page 879, and answer the following: Why would the British colonialist be reluctant to speak English to the Kenyan boys? As noted in the next paragraph, the Englishmen wanted to maintain the colonial distance between natives and whites. In what ways did linguistic separation help maintain colonial political and economic structures? Colonists believed that keeping colonizers and the colonized as separate as possible decreased the chances of insurrection and of mixing of the races. This is the author’s foreshadowing of social Darwinism, a major ideology justifying European imperialism in this era.
