Ghandi was a non- violent activist. He believed that everyone was equal no matter what religon, race or gender. But, there was a problem because Britian ruled India and some of thier rules and laws were unfair. There for he then started his study on equal rights of every person. The british did not like it when Ghandi prosted peacefully because he was making such an impact. For example, the salt march. Ghandi protested peacefully just by taking salt water and removing the salt instead of having to pay the high tax for salt. The british did not like this so they put Ghandi in jail. After some years they finally let Ghandi go because they were afriad that he might die. Finally, in 1947 Britain granted India their independence. But one thing Ghandi said really stuck with me is "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind."
