He was a civil rights leader. He got the nickname Mahatma which means ¨"great soul¨ because the indian poet called him that. Gandhi moved to south Africa and struggled there against racial and religious discrimination. He was particularly bothered by the institutional racism that seemed to accompany British control over their territories. During this time Gandhi began to call for nonviolent revolutions that challenged authority. Gandhi spent most of his life in other places but when he came back to India at this time still a British territory he began working in politics. His primary goal was a fully independent India,no British or any other foreign governments.]]> 2017-03-01 14:51:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157033850 kellee_hicks https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157034072 Martin Luther King Jr. was born on January 15th 1929 he was an american baptist minister and activist who was a leader in the civil rights movement.]]> 2017-03-01 14:51:34 UTC https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157034072 kellee_hicks https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157314487 Martin Luther King Jr. took part in civil disobedience by marching peacefully, he marched on Washington with the southern christian conference.]]> 2017-03-02 13:53:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157314487 kellee_hicks https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157315720 Martin Luther King Jr. was fighting for equality for the African American rights and to have the same rights as White Americans.]]> 2017-03-02 13:56:56 UTC https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157315720 jada_moore https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157316845 This was a act of civil disobedience because Gandhi was going against the one of the British rules in India. The British did not want the Indians selling or collecting salt but Gandhi did not like the british and he wanted them gone from india with all over their rules. He wanted India to be free. This was to show the British that he did not like what they were doing but he did it in a peace way. Gandhi was arrested but Satyagraha still carried on without him. He wanted to change that rule. ]]> 2017-03-02 13:59:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157316845 kellee_hicks https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157321728 thoreau's ideas have influenced the world in the most famous case of all. martin Luther king Jr reidfied the the ideas in Birmingham Alabama " during my early college days i read thoreaus essay on civil disobedience for the first time king remembered" i became convinced that non cooperation with ever is much a moral obligation as cooperation is good".]]> 2017-03-02 14:11:15 UTC https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157321728 jada_moore https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157325915 It cannot be doubted that Thoreau's work did give an intellectual framework for Gandhi's program of active-non violence as well as new ideas for specific forms of non-cooperation. In July,1846 ,Thoreau refused to pay a poll tax and spent one night in jail for his crime. Gandhi would go to jail for much longer terms and willingly accept the punishment for breaking the law. ]]> 2017-03-02 14:20:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157325915 kellee_hicks https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157328176 as Martin Luther King Jr delved deeper into Gandhi, he said his skepticism concerning the power of love gradually diminished and came to see for the first time that the christian doctrine of love, operating through the Gandhism method of non violence is one of the most potent weapons available to an oppressed people in there struggle of freedom.]]> 2017-03-02 14:25:14 UTC https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157328176 jada_moore https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157332005 2017-03-02 14:33:18 UTC https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157332005 kellee_hicks https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157335347 according to thoreau in civil disobedience the flaw in majority rule is just that- the government is ruled by the majority and the minority is left out. thoreau states " but government in which the majority rules in all cases can not be based on justice even as even as far as men understand it]]> 2017-03-02 14:39:25 UTC https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157335347 kellee_hicks https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157337380 i think if we were to act upon these ideas we would get a lot more done and are voices would be heard, the world would look a lot different.]]> 2017-03-02 14:43:12 UTC https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157337380 kellee_hicks https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157338172 i think it would be effective somewhat because yes Martin Luther kings voice was heard and a change has come but he did it in a peaceful way and that's the way we need to do it.]]> 2017-03-02 14:44:42 UTC https://padlet.com/jada_moore/dq8rf7ni617r/wish/157338172
