I support nonviolent, peaceful protest as the preferred means to effect political change. Mohandas Gandhi employed nonviolent protest against the greatest empire in history, and it worked.Britain and other European countries were in the process of decolonization anyway. If Britain wanted to hold on to India, it could have done so, and an emaciated man on a hunger strike would not have stopped them. |
