Sample Response: Bill Patchett is a driven person who cares about winning and who is accustomed to using force to resolve his problems.
Sample Response: Ramdas believes in satyagraha, which is the use of nonviolence to stand up to injustice. He did not want to react to Bill Patchett with anger or aggression, but rather to follow in Gandhi’s footsteps and demonstrate the power of peaceful resistance in overcoming oppression or aggression.

28. Sample Response: Kenneth is inspired by what Gandhi was able to accomplish using nonviolent methods. He decides that a nonviolent approach can be used to address the conflict on the football team.
