Ghandi’s Move
(Continued from Page 2)
ter a white passenger had
refused to share his com
partment with a “coolie”.
There was absolutely
nothing Ghandi could do to
the white man or the
others who had put him
off the train. Violence
would have been abso
lutely useless. He real
izes that retaliation for
this incident or the in
numerable similar inci
dents throughout Africa
and India itself would be
as wrong as the actions of
the oppressor. Instead
Ghandi practiced and
preached a means of re
sistance that was based
on his faith in the ulti
mate truth of God and
that truth itself will pre
vail over any evil.
He knew that war and
violent revolution were
forms of evil in them
selves and that putting
one evil against another
could never come out in
any form of truth or good^
He puts this “Saty-
agraha”, or truth force
against British plantation
and mill owners who were
exploiting the Indian peo
ple; thus, upholding the
truths of each man’s free
dom and the inhumanity of
exploitation. He urged
them to strike and as
they hungered he fasted
until there were fair set
tlements. Ghandi’s means
were practiced more and
more and he became well
known and praised
throughout the world,
Ghandi settled internal
disputes and misunder
standings among his peo
ple, constantly relying on
the truth of God and be
lief that it will always
overcome any form of
evil. He was assasinated
by a Hindu extremist on
Jan. 30, 1948, shocking
all of India as well as
the whole world, but leav
ing us all an example of
truth itself.
We, the youth, do not
fear such oppressors and
the changes we feel ne
cessary are minute, in
many respects, compar
ed to what Ghandi faced.
Yet, we acknowledge the
necessary changes that
must be carried out.
Peace is the second lar
gest word known to hu
manity. Love is the first.
