Who were Gandhi and Mandela
Mandela(1918-2013) A man with an intention to work

Gandi (1869-1948) Mahatma Gandhi was an Indian
politician. He led the Indian nationalist movement
against British rule in India. He was internationally
recognized for his of non-violence.
Gandhi grew up in a strict moral Hindu environment. His
father belonged kjpmannskasten and was minister in
princely state Porbandar. Before he left hamper the basis he
promised that he would stay away from alcohol and women.
Gandhi arrived in 1888 to England where he became a
lawyer. In 1893 he traveled to South Africa and remained
there until 1914.
For half a century devoted Mahatma Gandhi, who was his
real name, his life fighting oppression. He first worked from
1893 in about 20 years as a lawyer among Indian immigrants
and guest workers in South Africa. It was during this time he
discovered the strength that lay in forms of action based on

ahimsa - nonviolence. Time and again he forced the South

African government to its knees by means of strikes, protest
marches and other disobedience campaigns.
Back in their homeland began the laborious struggle for an
independent India, which lasted until the British withdrew
from their most valuable colony in 1947. It was Gandhi, who
had now been nicknamed Mahatma, "great soul," constantly
a unifying and conciliatory manager.
He was shocked by racial discrimination in South Africa and
organized the Indian ethnic group of passive resistance to
unjust laws.
