==History== Born in British-ruled India, Gandhi was famed for his courageous passive movements towards alleviating poverty, increasing women's rights, promoting religious harmony and, most prominently, obtaining India's independence. Gandhi led the campaign for India's independence from British rule through a specific philosophy of nonviolent resistance called [[wikipedia:Satyagraha|Satyagraha]]. Some of his movements included the famed [[wikipedia:Salt March|Salt March]], multiple hunger strikes and more, which often led to long stints in prison and harm to himself. Gandhi also worked to unite Hindus and Muslims in the country, which drew the attention of many would-be assassins. After five failed attempts on his life, Gandhi was assassinated on January 30, 1948, leaving a nation and world in mourning. As the preeminent nonviolent activist, Gandhi's influence changed the course of human history, setting the stage for leaders such as Martin Luther King who drew from his inspiring nonviolent philosophies for change.
