Revered in India as the 'Father of the Nation' Mohandas K. Gandhi is also a worldwide icon of non-violent political resistance. Gandhi was born in India and studied law in England, then spent 20 years defending the rights of immigrants in South Africa. He returned to India in 1914, eventually becoming the leader of the Indian National Congress. At that time, India was part of the British Empire, and Gandhi urged non-violence and civil disobedience as a means to independence.
