Gandhi was a man who faced many challenges that he tried to overcome. He tried to look on the good side of the situation, and to remain optimistic. One challenge that made a big difference in Gandhi's view of South African whites was when he was living in South Africa. Gandhi went to South Africa. Gandhi went to South Africa to practice law, and he did earn a lot of money from this, but he was treated very unfairly while he was there. South Asians were called 'coolies' by the South African whites, meaning that they were thought to be untouchable by people of higher standing people. Gandhi faced many people who were prejudiced, and were disgusted by the Indians. These unfair things helped Gandhi realize that being fair and peaceful was what the government should be about and do, & that India needed to be free from British and whites' rule.
