Le "fardeau" auquel le titre fait référence est la mission civilisatrice de l'homme blanc colonisateur. Le titre du poème devint le slogan des impérialistes de l'époque. L'expression est aujourd'hui souvent utilisée de façon ironique pour désigner l'attitude raciste et condescendante des impérialistes. -
