In your opinion after reading the above quote, what is the true “burden” of colonialism, and who carries it?
Read the following quote:
“The White Man’s Burden,” New York Age, T. Thomas Fortune, editor (April
1899)
“Nobody has asked the white races to rob and enslave the black and yellow races of the
earth. The burden, if such it be, was assumed voluntarily and without the consent and
desire of the victims, who preferred and still prefer their land and liberty and freedom
from the tyranny of white men. They do not thank them for the assumption of the
alleged burden and the alleged sacrifices. From Warren Hastings and Lord Clive in India
to Cecil Rhodes in South Africa, the despoiled native has hated his despoiler and groaned
under the load of foreign rule and taxation forced upon him.”
Question: In your opinion after reading the above quote, what is the true “burden” of colonialism, and who

Texas is the only state that refuses to follow the Clean Air Act, citing that to do so would greatly hurt our economy, cost Texan’s their jobs and raise the costs of goods produced here in Texas. As a fellow Texan, or at least current Texas resident, how does this make you feel about the quality of the air you breathe in this state? What are environmental concerns associated with not complying with the Clean Air Act? What are concerns for future generations of Texans? Should Texas comply with the Clean Air Act or should we establish our own pollution standards, even if the EPA says they are not safe levels? Is there some type of compromise?
FYI – Texas has still not met the EPA’s 1997 standards for criteria air pollutants. Here is an article talking about the Texas Air Quality issues: Article on Texas Air Quality by NPR

Scenario 1
In the recent COVID-19 pandemic, a local precinct observed that of the 75 people who voted, 25 identified as republican, 30 were democrat, and 20 were “other”.

At that same precinct, pre-pandemic voting based on political party affiliation was: 35% republican, 44% democrats, and 21% “other”. Enter in the 75 data points and expected values into SPSS to conduct the appropriate statistical test.
