He proved that ok ‘a person's ideals can be a weapon more . z powerful than guns, and that, ifthe powerless ‘get united, they can bring about change without the use of violence. He used this, philosophy in his peaceful struggle to free India from British rule. Asa holy man, he was deeply religious but did not believe in any one religion. He tried to teach people to accept all religions as he believed that they taught ‘truth. Which he sald was ‘God’. Gandhi helped bring about India's independence but was killed in 1948 by a Hindu fanatic, who accused him of betraying India and the Hindu religion. Many people regard Jean Monnet, born in Cognac, France, inv 1888, as the father of the European Union. He believed that European countries would benefit if they worked together. For this reason, he encouraged cooperation and creative dialogue. He believed that Europe would one day become a community Which would share common interests. His greatest contribution towards this goal came after World War Il when there was, ‘growing tension between Germany and France. Since he was afraid that war would break out once again, Jean Monnet suggested that Germany's and France's coal and steel resources should be controlled by an independent authority. This was the beginning of what was to become a union of nations. Petra Kelly may not be known to many but she played a very important role in promoting environmentalism. She was born in Bavaria, Germany, but was brought up in the USA. After completing her studies, she ‘moved to Germany where she founded the Greens, ‘political organisation interested in freedom ‘and the environment. She believed that it was the government's responsibilty to protect the environment and that not enough was done to do so. Petra’s enthusiasm brought about the European green ‘movement. Tragically, she was killed in 1992. ‘Nadine Gordimer has, throughout her life, fought against Injustice. As she was born in South Africa, she knows well what fighting for one’s rights is all about. The fact that she is white did not stop her from using her writing skills and her influence as ‘an author to speak out against apartheld. She became famous ‘when she won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1991.
