Is Gandhi from India?

Gandhi believed that every person was equal (black or white) and that they should all be treated in the same way. He believed in giving Indians their rights and becoming a peaceful fighter with non-violent civil disobedience. He believed in a untied India, but that did not happen because the Muslims left to Pakistan because there were so many more Muslims and they were scared they would overpower them. Gandhi rioted against the British because he thought that the British were treating the Indians poorly. Gandhi also made speeches to get many people to join them so that eventually the British would get overwhelmed. During the separation of Muslims and Hindus, violence broke out between both groups, and Gandhi went on a fast, which stopped the fighting. Gandhi did many things to help give India Independence, and today he is considered a hero.
