GANDHI…THE BEGINNINGS After Gandhi has a run in with the thugs
on the sidewalk… He is working to build a community
(ashram) he is hoping to accomplish a sense of home for the people, and freedom for his family.
It being outside of India, everyone has to do their fair share of the work, where as in India, untouchables would do it
UNTOUCHABLES? Gandhi’s wife’s turn to clean the latreen
is up, but she is unhappy because she is not in a caste that should have to
Gandhi and her get in a fightShe has to because she is his wifeAnd because everyone contributes…and she conceides
He leads a South African protest against the carrying of “colored passess”
PASSES FOR THE STREET? He encourages them to fight, you will
have toFightGo to prisonGet torturedBut never get violent
Then they march on the mines where they are being suppressed and police on horseback confront them, but lose…and then they send him to jail
GANDHI RETURNS TO INDIA He goes on a missionary pilgrimage to
see India… HE SEES A TON OF POVERTY…
AND SOLDIERS MEET HIS TRAIN AND BEAT PEOPLE
HE MEETS WITH THE MUSLIM LEAGUE Then Gandhi makes his speech to
inspire helping the tenant farmers…
