Book Review of “Gandhi: A Life” by Yogesh Chadha
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 5 page book review of “Gandhi: A Life” by Yogesh Chadha (1997). Gandhi’s peaceful process was integral in the negotiations of the independence of India and while his methods may have seemed against many of the traditions of the Hindus, his acceptance of other religions and Western ways paved the way for a new and independent India. While Chadha used historical methods to relate the biography of Gandhi and tries to strip away several myths about the saint, he at the same time shows how Gandhi in his open, accepting and non-violent resistance was able to unite the Indian people toward a new independence even at the cost of his own life.

Booker T. Washington/Up From Slavery

A 5 page essay that discusses and analyzes Booker T. Washington's autobiography.

As his autobiography demonstrates, Washington excelled at this. The purpose of this text is to get white America to think, to consider the black perspective and to see that rights for African Americans benefited everyone. No additional sources cited.
