Gandhi1
Mahatma Gandhi was born on October 2 1869 in Porbandar India. He grew up in a very wealthy and spiritual home. His father got very ill while Gandhi was a young child, which put him through a lot of stress. The way he got rid of the stress was by taking long walks in the night. Which sooner or later turned into smoking, shoplifting, and even eating meat. Which Gandhi was a vegetarian. After Gandhi completed his early education, he went to London to study in a university. He was trying to become a lawyer. After he was through with school, he moved back to India. Shortly after, an Indian firm wanted him to travel to South Africa. When he arrived, he realized white people do not welcome Indians. One day because colored people were not allowed in first class he got kicked off a train. That was when he decided he would never be pushed down again and to fight for Indian rights that whites took away from them. At this time, Gandhi made a rule to himself that he would never be violent in his life, even if others used it. Also he started fighting for the rights of Indian workers in South Africa and he had done a very good job.

Gandhi and many followers made the famous Dandi March to the Arabian Sea where they made their own salt by evaporating water from the sea. In his life time, Mahatma "the great soul" Gandhi was venerated as a moral teacher, a reformer who fought to see India as free from rank as from materialism, and a dedicated patriot who gave the Home Rule movement a new quality. When the war ended, India became independent shortly afterward, in 1947. This lead to many fights and violent outbreaks between people. The government knew they had to change this part of the constitution quickly, for if Gandhi died, then revolution would be imminent. The envy between these two still persists as a result of the conflict created by the British Empire did not know how to act against an enemy who does not use violence. In his life time, Mahatma "the great soul" Gandhi was venerated as a moral teacher, a reformer who fought to see India as free from rank as from materialism, and a dedicated patriot who gave the Home Rule movement a new quality. Thousands were arrested and the movement was mostly a sucsess, but a few violent outbreaks like in the previous protest caused the INC and Gandhi to call the protest off and admit that it was a mistake. By 1920, Gandhi was very influential among Indians.
