Film Lesson On Gandhi.

-Some of the things Gandhi did was making his own clothing and that led his people to do the same thing so they wouldn't buy from the British. He told the Indian population to stop paying taxes particularly the tax on salt, So they traveled to the Arabian Sea where they made salt by evaporating sea water but then Gandhi was arrested. Gandhi Refused to eat when he found out his people were fighting back at the British when they were being beaten, He wanted to prove that he didn't use violence for anything so then his people stop and he came off of his eating strike.

-Gandhi's philosophy of none violence was that he never used it because he wanted to prove himself as a leader and show that he didn't need to use violence back at the British to succeed in becoming a leader. Gandhi used it affectively by showing the British that they can beat his people as much as they want but they wont use it back but many people were hurt in this case.When Gandhi found out his people used violence back to make his people stop he wouldn't eat until they stopped.

Extra Credit:
- I think India's Independence was all about Gandhi because if it wasn't for him the Indian population would have been the way it was before Gandhi was in the picture. They needed someone to lead them to independence. World War 1 had a lot to do with India's Independence around that time
