Directly talking to an individual “i have already told you yesterday what i had to say.” This makes the speech more direct towards the Indian people, his followers and the protesters.

The speech uses pathos, and talks about our feelings, but there is also some ethos, because the right thing to do is to fight with gandhi.

The speech begins and ends with Ghandi stating that he knows he is going to be arrested the next morning and this will be his last words to his followers. 

An opposition in the speec is that Gandhi talks a lot about freedom, and getting freedom in a peaceful way. The peaceful protest might not be that peaceful, since they are breaking British law. when breaking the law, police can use violence and throw them in prison.

  1. The first receiver is the people of india. The people of India were directly affected by this matter, and therefore its a sign of hope for the Indian people. 
  2. The second receiver is people outside India and around the world. Gandhi is a sign of hope for the people fighting for the right reasons like peace. Gandhi is a symbol of hope for many people that are going through struggles, and is a big part of world history.

Answer the following questions:

-  Based on what you read so far, is The ‘Salt March’ a symbolic turn for India? You may use the internet to find further information.
The Salt March took place from march to april in 1930. The Salt March was an act of civil disobedience led by Gandhi where thousands of people followed Gandhi for over 20 days. It was a protest against British rule in India where it was illegal to collect or sell salt - it was called the British Salt act (1882). The Salt March led to 60.000 people including Gandhi being arrested. 

-  How is Mohandas Gandhi's legacy in India and in the rest of the world? Has Gandhi inspired other world leaders and movements throughout time?
Gandhi is known for being one of the most influential people in the world and has throughout and after his time inspired many and is often quoted by politicians, celebrities, ect. His ways of peaceful protests are admired, people like MLK looked up to Gandhi and because of this, the civil rights movement led by Martin Luther King Jr. was heavily inspired by Gandhi and his protests.
 

-  Why do we need heroes?
So called hero’s give the common people a hope of change and motivates the people to change the system. Gandhi is called a hero due to his actions that inspired people all over India, and his influence is a big part of the reason why Britain granted independence to India. A hero is also defined as someone who personifies features regarded as important for the culture, like personifications of common cultural values, which Gandhi was also known for.


-  A guru is a religious and spiritual guide. Do you know any religious movements led by a guru? 

A guru is in hinduism a personal spiritual teacher or a spiritual guide in sanskrit it’s called venerable. Throughout the 60’s and 70's numerous of the guru or swami movements occurred in the united states. in the late 60’s new streams of the hindu religious life flushed over the US and it quickly became a household word. All of this happened because a man named Maharishi Mahesh Yogi was a student from the himalayas. He was the first person to open a student meditation center.

This implies a strong feeling of segregation between the people and the ruling government in India. Gandhi was a strong believer in nonviolent solutions to problems, even though he refers to the nonviolent ways of living, he fears the violence of the government and the people in doubt. this can be seen in the first three lines where he says "In al! probability this will be my last speech to you. Even If the government allow me to march tomorrow morning, this will be my last speech on the sacred banks of the Sabarmati . Possibly these may be the last words of my life here".

Through the quotation “We have resolved to utilize alI our resources in the pursuit of an exclusively non-violent struggle” (L 11-12 P. 1) we can see the difference sides, in how Gandhi speaks to his followers, using words such as “We” and “Our” gives a sense of unity, and therefore creates an enemy. 
Through the quotation “The purchasers of such salt will be equally guilty.” (L 5-6 P. 2) Using the word “guilty”, gives us an idea of what Gandhi thought was right or wrong, what side is right or wrong, and it shows how he tried to justify his and his comrades’ actions.]]> 2021-09-01 10:14:08 UTC https://padlet.com/karinabhilm/pumk5mlps2tu/wish/1709597224 (Message) Azad, Clint, Jacob and Marcus marcus_r_pedersen https://padlet.com/karinabhilm/pumk5mlps2tu/wish/1709604350
The message of the speech is that his followers should keep protesting for their rights and needs. Salt is a basic human necessity and the Indians have a right to produce it. Gandhi tells his followers that they should march down to the sea and produce their own salt. The protest was called satyagraha. The things that he encourages his followers to do ends him and many of the followers in jail but that does not stop the fight.  


“But let there be not a semblance of breach of peace even after alI of us have been arrested (p.1 l.10-11)”


 In conclusion, the message is that the Indians need to keep practicing Satyagraha, whilst Gandhi goes to prison, in order for them to free themselves from British rule.


“I shall eagerly awaft the news that ten batches are ready as soon as my batch is arrested.” (p. 3 l.2-3)
