Film Session "Gandhi"


Gandhi helped his country gain independence in several ways. One thing he did was get a rally going and burn all the papers the British government gave the Indian people. While trying to burn them the Brtish police force beat him up with sticks. Another was he walked down to the ocean and made his own salt because the British government was unfair on its salt so Gandhi made people make there salt to boycott the British salt. Then the British were being unfair on cloth so Gandhi told the people to make there own cloth and they did boycotting that as well. But the most important thing he did to defeat the British was a none violence policy he refused to use violence even though they beat him. He encouraged the Indain people to do the same not to fight back but fight back the Gandhi way.
There are two reasons why the Indian people got there freedom. One: Gandhi harass them for years in his anti-voilence ways. Two:WWII the war started and all of the British atention went to the war thats what got the Indian people there freedom.
