Film Lesson- "Gandhi"

After watching the movie "Gandhi," Gandhi helped his nation of India gain Independence from Great Britain by protesting without violence using civil disobedience. Some of the things he did was he protested on land tax, eased poverty, helping the woman's rights, and protested on British-imposed salt tax. HIs idea of nonviolence was to require strength and courage in a nonviolence way. It was a strategy for social change that rejects the use of physical violence.
I think that India's Independence was not all about Gandhi. I think it was more about coming together as people and going against the British because it was Indian people's country and they wanted rights. Gandhi wanted the same as for his people and after the Independence, Muslims and Hindus came together. In Great Britain about the time of Indian Independence that may have influenced events was World War II. It influenced World War II because during the war Britain spent a lot of money to provide the army.
