Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In 1930, Mahatma Gandhi instigated the Civil Disobedience Movement when he led the Salt March to protest British salt laws. The march was a nonviolent act of political protest (or civil disobedience) during the Indian Independence movement, as Indians attempted to gain independence from the British Empire. Gandhi's Salt Satyagraha ("satya-" means "truth" and "-graha" means "force") was a 240-mile-long walk that took 25 days to complete. It inspired many Indians to join the cause, which realized its aim in 1947. Gandhi's nonviolent civil disobedience influenced many social leaders, the most notable of whom, Martin Luther King Jr., led his own campaign of nonviolent civil disobedience two decades later in the United States, as he worked to achieve equal recognition of African-American civil rights.
