What about HG Wells? They were born about a year apart, although Wells was born in England. Some of Wells' early work doesn't hold up, but by 1907 he opposed imperialism, classism & wrote strongly against the "unfairness of the handicaps put upon men of colour," in his own words.

HG Wells was a eugenicist but yes it would be better to be him than Kipling Kipling was strongly associated with the right wing in his time, he was the "Tory Laureate"
