Interviews

This interview was very helpful for me because she provided me the gist of her experiences with Gandhi's work starting with the origination of nonviolence in South Africa to the Dandi March and its effects. I understood the reasons why Gandhi chose to walk, why he used salt as a weapon, how he planned the walk and how the participants "snow-balled" during the walk starting from a few at the beginning to a large mass at the end. She provided me with an excellent explanation of the historical impact of the walk, how it inspired the masses and made the common citizen part the battle of independence against the British rather than just a few political leaders.

This was crucial because the march isn't when they break the law, but when they picked up the salt at the end of the march.
