Mahatma Gandhi led India's non-violent independence movement against British colonial rule. Mahatma Gandhi became the preeminent leader of India's independence movement during the early to mid-20th century (1915-1948), developing non-violent civil disobedience as a means to challenge British colonial rule. His philosophy of satyagraha (holding onto truth) inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world. During this turbulent period of decolonization, Gandhi advocated for religious pluralism, economic self-sufficiency through his promotion of handspun cloth (khadi), and the upliftment of India's untouchable caste. His assassination shortly after India achieved independence in 1947 martyred him as "Father of the Nation" whose principles continue to influence political activists and peace movements globally.
