This quote said by Gandhi shows his role as a transformational leader by putting his words into action. By sharing his vision of peace, Gandhi gained followers that helped him to put non-violent protests into action. Even though he was looked upon as superior to the rest, he acted as if he were not; he acted as one with India.

While in Africa and on his trip to India, Gandhi noticed that the British were treating the Indian people as if they were a minority. The British overtook India’s independence and tortured them like they had the status of a slave.

“We deserve equal treatment.” -Gandhi South Africa and India were part of the British empire, therefore, Gandhi thought the people living there shouldn’t have been set aside. To protest this, Gandhi started off by getting a small group of followers to begin burning their passes that only non-whites, like themselves, had to carry.

Gandhi motivated others to start building Indian communities to help bring the Indian people together. Together, the people organized a newspaper to spread awareness around the world of the problems they were facing with the British Empire.
10
Gandhi was a role model to the Indians because he used non- violence against the British by accepting a beating and taking the consequences of getting arrested. Gandhi was willing to sacrifice his own happiness to help the cause.
11
Instead of giving in to the British rules, such as taxes on salt, Gandhi led his followers to rise up against them and march to the Indian sea to produce their own salt. Along with this action, Gandhi inspired the Indians to stop buying clothes from the British and begin making their own.
12
INDIA’S INDEPENDENCE Challenge the Process: Hindu’s and Muslims began to dispute over land and their differences in beliefs. Inspire a Shared Vision: To inspire non-violence, Gandhi states that he is “a Christian, Muslim, Hindu, and a Jew.” By saying this he resembled the idea of equality. Enable Others to Act: To prevent the country from splitting into two, Gandhi offers Jinnah prime minister ship. Model the Way: To stop the fighting, Gandhi commits to fast until death if needed. “ You’re killing Gandhi, do what is right.”

14
Through the steps of transformational leadership, Gandhi faced the challenges of racism within the British empire to help bring India independence. Although he didn’t stop the disputes between the Muslims and Hindu’s, he managed to raise awareness that violence never helps, you can only achieve change through peace. “ We are all God’s children.” -Gandhi
