a historical ideal (sparked in the 1700s) held by SOME, not all, Europeans that they had a duty, rather a "burden", put on themselves to take care of all the other "inferior" races of the earth. This was often used as an excuse for racism, genocide, slavery, and imperialism.
Contrary to this idea is the Black man's burden which was to put up with the cruel treatment from the White man. However, seeing how both racial imperialism and slavery are over, neither the White man nor the Black man should be complaining about "burdens".
the white man's burden should be to support all the other races of the earth, and so should be the black man's burden.

The onus that has been put on the white man to drag the rest of the world into civilization while simultaneously being the most hated group on the planet.
It was the white man's burden to drag the African negro out of his mud hut clicking and screaming into the first world and look how we've been repaid.

The burden of the biggest man in the group to sit in the front seat of a cab.
Sid was 7 feet tall. He felt the big man’s burden to always sit in the front seat.
noun/ 1) The guilt that white men and woman feel over the historical subjection of other races. For instance, the extroardinary election of Barack Obama may be due in part to guilt over the fact that blacks were forced into slavery for 300 years. Another example would be the white community's hesitation to be proud of their heritage, while most other races exhibit their pride.
2) The result in which a business, university, etc. will prefer a qualified man or woman of ethnicity over another qualified caucasian.
White Guy: I didn't get accepted into Berkeley, even though I have a 4.2 GPA.
Friend: White Man's Burden

What Shrek screams at donkey out of vexation when Shrek explained to him that ogres are like onions, but donkey kept blabbering on about cakes and parfait.
For your information, there's a lot more to ogres than people think.
Donkey: Example?
Shrek: Example? Okay, um, ogres are like onions.
Donkey: Sniffs They stink?
Shrek: Yes-- No!
Donkey: They make you cry?
Shrek: No!
Donkey: You leave them out in the sun, they get all brown, start sproutin' little white hairs.
Shrek: No! Layers! Onions have layers. Ogres have layers. Onions have layers. You get it? We both have layers.
Donkey: Oh, you both have layers. Oh. Sniffs You know, not everybody likes onions. Cakes! Everybody loves cakes! Cakes have layers.
Shrek: I don't care what everyone likes. Ogres. Are not. Like cakes.
Donkey: You know what else everybody likes? Parfaits. Have you ever met a person, you say, "Hey, let's get some parfait," they say, "No, I don't like parfait"? Parfaits are delicious.
Shrek: No! You dense, irritating, miniature beast of burden! Ogres are like onions! End of story. Bye bye. See ya later.
