Gandhi arranged the Salt March, a march where hundreds of Indians followed Gandhi in a 23 days march to the shore to make their own salt and to protest the tax given on many simple products.Gandhi founded an ashram in Ahmadabad, India that was open to all castes. The caste system in India was like a social hierarchy. He held a six day fast to protest the British segregating the "untouchables",the lowest caste in India. Gandhi also launched the Quit India movement where indians refused to fight for the British during world war 2. When the British set indians free, they made a deal. The colony had to be divided into 2 separate countries, Pakistan and India. The people living in Pakistan (mostly) were Muslim, and the people living in India (mostly) were Hindu. Gandhi worked very hard and tried to settle the religious riots between the hindus and the muslims. it was what was dividing India. the riots continued and Natharam Godse, a Hindu was fed up and blamed Gandhi for the riots continuing and Gandhi was murdered, Jan 30, at 78 years of age in New Delhi, India. Godse had hoped for war to break out but peace was temporarily restored due to the united grieving of Gandhi, one of the most important indian representatives in the indian revolution.

Gandhi wanted to change the world, but first he had to get a job. So when the firm he was working for sent Gandhi out to South Africa,  Gandhi had his chance, when he was told to leave his first class seat (that he paid for) and give it up to a white man, Gandhi took action. He refused to get off the train and was thrown out on to the sidewalk. This was the first step in Gandhi's uprising. At his first experience in a Durban courtroom, he was asked to to take off his turban, he refused. He was thrown out shortly after. He was thrown in jail a countless amount of times. He suffered pain, racism, pressure, and everything you would not want to go through.
