Because he was not white and travelling in First Class (though he had ticket).
Mohandas Gandhi was kicked off of the train in South Africa on June 7 1893 because the train people were racist and said he had to go back to the 3rd class train because he was in 1st class and he was Indian.
A white passenger complained that Gandhi was sitting in first class, and the police officer told him to move. Gandhi politely stated, 'I have a ticket, a first class ticket', and showed the officer his ticket. The police officer rudely commented, 'Just move your black ass back to third class, or I'll have you thrown off at the next station'. Gandhi replied, 'But I always go first class...'
Gandhi was thrown off the train because he refused to move from a first-class compartment, which was reserved for white passengers only.
Gandhi use to travel first class when he was a lawyer. That soon changed when an Englishman objected to him sitting in the First Class Section even though Gandhi had a ticket. He got kicked off the train. Indians in South Africa were treated poorly. Indian marriages were not recognised, so therefore their wives were 'mistresses'.
Ghandi asked to go back to 3rd class when he had bought a 1st class ticket after this he was Kicked of the train at the next stop hope this helps
He said it when a reporter asked him what messag did he have for his people (Gandhi was getting off a train in another country).
WHAT ARE U TALKING ABOUT?! Rosa parks got kicked off a bus! Harriet didn't even ride the bus! she rode the train! She didn't ride the train she walked
Gandhi first experienced racism when he was traveling by train, and was asked to move from first class to third. He refused to do so and was thrown off of the train.
Please have your ticket ready when the conductor comes along.
Gandhi was thrown out of a train because a white man needed a first class carriage. Gandhi had brought a first class ticket but as he was black, he was thrown of the train for refusing to move.
he was on a pritorian train,and a station employee said a Indian can't ride on the seat and to go to thehold. But, Gandhi refused.So the sataion employee called the cops so he was thrown of the train.
you really can't get kicked off.
