Non-Violence

Non-Violence
Andrew Childs
World History
8th block




I believe non-violence works because it is the best way to face a problem. This can show that not raising a finger can ultimately give you what you desire for. In document D Ghandi writes that “I cannot intentionally hurt anything that lives, much less human beings, even though they may do the greatest wrong to me.” Non-violence is often used against unjust laws. In document I, for example Nelson Mandela says, “No matter what the authorities did, the volunteers could not retaliate, otherwise they would undermine the value of the entire enterprise.” Non-violence can also work against racism, as Martin Luther King did. He preached non-violence to all African Americans that faced racism. In document H for example Dr. King says, “We proved to them that we needed no weapons-not so much as a toothpick.” Using non-violence by stop working or helping for whoever is oppressing you. The boycott of buses which helped big to ending segregation in the south was a great way of using non-violence. In document K Dr. King says, “People had rushed down to get arrested for their part in the Montgomery bus boycotts.” This shows non-violence was the best way to go. The biggest problem that occurred that Nelson Mandela disliked the most was the sanctions put on his people. In document C he says, “We could not tell out supporters to relax sanctions until he had completely dismantled apartheid and a transitional government was in place.” In the movie the ways Ghandi taught non-violence was great. They way Ghandi told them to stop their work for him and take their blows but not to even block the attack. The massacre was also a good example because some of the men could have brought guns and fought back but they lined up and didn’t fight back at all. This are the reasons I believe non-violence is the best way to face a problem.
