Film lesson "Ghandi"

Ghandi used his intelligence from law school to help the Indians become an independent nation. he wanted the Muslims and the Hindus to become one instead of two different nations. He told his people to use there head instead of there fists. They protested and showed the Britsh they can fight back. Ghandi showed his people how to gain independence without using violence and how make there point even more feirce by doing everything else but hitting. His philosophy of using non-viloence was very affective to the British. they didnt know how to react to the non-viloence policy. Ghandi's famoous quote is "eye for an eye makes the world blind." This means that if you react to there hitting and you hit them back then you become one of them and then your no better then the one that hit you. this quote is very powerful and is very deep.
I think the independence would have happened anyways but it would have taken so much longer. because the indians wouldnt have tried to gain there own independence and just wait. but yes i think it would have happened anyways. i think Ghandi had a big part in there independence but it wasnt all him. his people didnt have to go along with him. but they did so they also did there own job.
