Gandhi
Gandhi helped his nation of India gain independence from Great Britian by boycotting british goods and only buying goods made in india. This would weaken the British economy and strengten India's ecomony. He also preached passive resistence and told all to resist all acts of violence . He said that violence only provoked Great Britian. Gandhi was imprisoned and went on a hunger strike for India. When he was released he took his famous walk to the sea to produce salt from the sea so that Britan did not have the monoply. all of the things he did was without using any violence.
