Aaron Owens and Anthony Curry 1. This group was important in history because it was like the civil rights in India. They where lead by Gandhi foughtt for the rights of the Indians. He used techniques of nonviolence. They where fighting for freedom against the english. Gandhi took the leadership of the congress in 1920 Gandhi demanded independence.

Gandhi decided to negotiate with the government. The british freed the political prisoners Gandhi was invited to the round table in London. It focused on the Indian princes and indian minorities rather than a transfer of power. Gandhi returned to active politics in 1936 Gandhi had total focus on independence. But Gandhi lost as a nominee to become president.

2.I think that this group is very interesting they where denied from a lot of rights in there own country. The indians had a lot of issues with the british. They had a leader for the people. Gandhi was the civil rights leader of India he helped change the world.

Indians had to fight for there rights they where beat by the police and killed. There was a big massacre against the indians. Gandhi was very courages to not use violence during this time. He even fasted from food so there could be peace.

3. Viewpoint of a person living in the ordeal. It was tough to live in India the british treated us weong. They made us feel that we didn't belong in our own country. We all went through bad times with them pushing us around. The british killed some of my people. My people where shot down in a big massacre.

But it was Gandhi that guided us in nonviolent acts against the british people. He was the leader of our people in the protest for independence. He did everything to make our rights better. They disrespected us and also our religon. This is the peoples point of view. This is the life of the people in India.
