Mahatma Gandhi What did Gandhi do? Gandhi was the first world leader to fight for political and social justice while advocating a nonviolent approach. He organized several non-violent protests to promote social progress in India. His campaigns aimed to ease poverty, expand women’s rights, build religious and ethnic harmony and eliminate the injustices of the caste system* in India. During these protests, large groups of people would do things like refusing to work, sitting in the streets and peacefully disrupting social activities.
Mohandas Gandhi is one of the most famous leaders and champions of justice in the world.
Full Name: Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi Born: October 2, 1869 in India Died: January 30, 1948 Best Known for: Organizing non-violent protests
The Power of Non-Violence
Mahatma
Superpower: Compassion
*A caste system is a type of society built on a hierarchy
Gandhi inspired millions of Indians as a living example with his life of simplicity, kindness and love. For this reason he was given the honorific title Mahatma which means Great Soul. The name Mahatma Gandhi is now one of the most universally recognized on Earth.
Mahatma Gandhi is known throughout the world for his principles of nonviolence. He fought for India's independence from British rule without using any violent tactics. He pleaded that his followers stay loyal to the aim of using non-violent activities in order to achieve their goal. In his memory and honor, today the International Day of Non-Violence is observed worldwide.
Gandhi attended law school in London and was famous among the faculty for his bad handwriting.
Gandhi is considered one of the most remarkable men of the 20th century, mostly because his actions always focused on compassion. Gandhi was very caring of others and constantly tried to alleviate their suffering.
The Power of Forgiveness
The Power of
Mahatma Gandhi had an extraordinary Forgiveness ability to forgive people who may have hurt him in any way. He was thrown into jail, humiliated by his enemies and beaten in the streets. People conspired to kill him and many assassination attempts were made. However, he had the power to forgive them all.
Gandhi was born and raised here
Despite the fact that he wasn’t a great orator and didn’t have a very attractive physique, he had great motivational skills.
Porbandar
Gandhi was put in prison several times for organizing protests. He would often fast (not eat) while he was in prison.
"First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win” Both Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela have credited Gandhi as a source of inspiration in their struggles to achieve equal rights for their people.
Gandhi's great charisma inspired and influenced people of all ages and on all social levels
Mahatma Gandhi is a man who changed the world through his compassion, vision, tolerance, and patience. Mahatma Gandhi is a great reminder of how one person can inspire a community, a nation, and the world. Gandhi led by example and refused to dress any other way than what he thought was right for him and his mission.

Persistence
Martin Luther King Jr.
The time is always right to do what is right!
John Lewis
You can google these black activists who, like King, greatly helped the Civil Rights Movement Try to find their link to Martin Luther King, to understand how everyone was connected to him.
What did King do?
Martin Luther King Jr. was a civil rights activist who led the civil rights movement in the United States.
Martin Luther King Jr. led the civil rights movement in the USA in the 1960s. He fought to end racial segregation (separate public facilities for blacks and whites) in the southern states. He organized and led non-violent protests to fight for the rights of African Americans and he became a symbol of persistence against all odds. He is considered one of the great orators of modern times, and his speeches still inspire many to this day.

Full name: Michael King Junior Born: January 15, 1929 in USA Died: April 4, 1968
Martin Luther King Jr's birthday is celebrated as a National Day in the USA. George Washington is the only other American to have had his birthday observed as a national holiday.
Best known for: Advancing the Civil Rights Movement and his "I Have a Dream" speech. Roy Wilkins
Malcolm X
King was imprisoned nearly 30 times. He was arrested for acts of civil disobedience and on false accusations. He was stoned by his enemies and he was physically attacked. King's house was bombed by pro-segregation groups. He was also placed under secret surveillance by the FBI. Hosea Williams

What clearly illustrates King's persistence and determination was the fact that he also had to defy his father in order to join the civil rights movement because his father did not approve of his son's antisegregation involvement. King's father also called him a disgrace to the family.
Like Gandhi, King tried hard to create a non-violent movement. He constantly tried to convince young black people of the reasons why they should be committed to nonviolent protests and confront any violence used against them with passive resistance.
Martin Luther King Jr. also had a noble goal to create a new social order wherein all kinds of people and groups would live together in unity and share equally the abundance of God’s creation. He named this community the BeLoved Community and he believed that this community was the only way to make the world a better place.
Martin Luther King Jr. nominated Thich Nhat Hạnh for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1967.
King was well known for his ability to inspire. He motivated African Americans to organize resistance through marches that attracted national and international attention, and as a result promoted their cause.
He received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964.
I have decided to stick to love... Hate is too great a burden to bear!
Despite the hostility of powerful opponents such as the FBI and many political groups, despite the assassination attempt and the several imprisonments, Martin Luther King Jr. was able to grow intellectually from facing all these challenges. *Segregation means keeping blacks and whites separate in schools, hospitals, restaurants, parks and libraries.
He was also a very good speaker. Researchers argue that he had excellent voice projection that encouraged his audience and intimated his opponents.
10 years later
In 1958 Martin Luther King Jr. was attacked by a political opponent with a knife. He was stabbed at the level of his heart but miraculously he survived. However from this incident a beautiful part of his speech "I have a dream" was created.

Be Love - Activity BE LOVE is a growing movement of courageous acts to achieve justice.
BE LOVE is a movement which aims to help society answer three critical questions facing humanity:
(1) Who must we be?
(2) What must we do?
(3) What are we to accomplish?
The King Center is leading the way to answering these questions.
Their work is grounded in the iconic words of Dr. Martin Luther King:
“Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice."
"Justice at its best is love correcting everything that stands against love.”
We can only achieve the BeLoved Community by working every day to put it into practice.
It is not enough to learn it; We must live it. So... PLEDGE to BE LOVE.
If you want to take the first step to becoming part of the BeLoved Community you need to read the following statement carefully, copy it once on a different page, understand it well, then head to the King Center website to sign the declaration!
Here is the statement of the BeLoved Community of The King Center:
I acknowledge three things: (1) The violence, oppression, inequity, injustice, and hate in our world has to stop.
“Let us live together in peace and love in a beloved community.” ― Martin Luther King
(2) I have a responsibility and role to play in creating social change for a more just, humane, equitable, and peaceful world. (3) The decision is mine whether to do nothing in this moment, or to have the courage to stand up for justice. And I have made my decision. Starting today, I make a personal choice to BE LOVE. I pledge to allow love to drive my thoughts, words, decisions, and actions, and honor the humanity of every individual. I pledge to speak the truth to power in love. I pledge to focus on defeating injustice and not destroying the person. I pledge to support leaders who demonstrate a love for humanity. I pledge to promote unity and refuse to perpetuate or magnify division.
“Our goal is to create a beloved community and this will require a qualitative change in our souls as well as a quantitative change in our lives.”
I pledge to demonstrate a life of courage, care, and compassion as I boldly confront anything that stands in opposition to love. By signing this pledge, I’m helping to create what Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. called The BeLoved Community.

Princess Diana Superpower:
Generosity
Princess Diana “Only do what your heart tells you.”
What did Princess Diana do? Princess Diana used her status and celebrity to help numerous charitable causes. Throughout her life she supported and gave her voice to people struggling with AIDS, leprosy, cancer and homelessness. Diana struggled with depression and bulimia as a result of her troubling marriage and complicated relationship with the press, who would make comments on her appearance. However, Diana managed to overcome her own difficulties and help people in need.
Princess Diana was an English princess, and is remembered as the "People's Princess" due to her global humanitarian efforts. Full name: Diana Frances Spencer Born: 1 July 1961, Sandringham, Norfolk, England. Died: 31 August 1997, Paris, France. Best known for: Being a Princess who worked to help the homeless, people living with HIV and AIDS and children in need.
On one school visit, to ease a child's nervousness, she told the child "I was as thick as a plank." This incident earned some negative publicity, but Diana knew it was the right thing to say to help the child relax.
She stated afterwards that helping others helped her with her depression.
Lady Di
Diana always wanted to do the right thing and was never concerned about what others would say.
Princess Diana was the first royal to give birth in a hospital. Before this, it had been customary for members of the royal family to give birth at the palace.

Diana Fever
Princess Diana was always eager to meet with people of all ages and backgrounds when visiting Commonwealth and other countries. She soon became one of the most popular royals in modern history, in a worldwide phenomenon called 'Diana Fever.'
On the 21st anniversary of her death, a graffiti portrait of the late royal - who was known as the 'People's Princess' - appeared overnight on the 13th pillar in the Pont de l'Alma Tunnel in Paris, where she had met with her fatal accident.
'Princess Di' - or 'Lady Di' as many used to call her - rapidly evolved to become an icon of grace, elegance, and glamour.
Tragically, on August 31, 1997, at the age of 36, Diana died from injuries she sustained in a car crash in Paris. The crash occurred while her car was being chased by paparazzi..

Dare to do things differently
Princess Diana was well known for doing things differently. People loved her for all the things she did to help those in need, and the way she did them.
Diana showed great interest in childhood cancers, and she used to visit The Royal Marsden Hospital at least three times a week. There were occasions when she would spend up to four hours at a time with patients - holding their hands and talking to them.

Princess Diana broke with royal tradition when she gave birth to Prince William, and later Prince Harry, at the Lindo Wing at St Mary's Hospital in London.

You can also change your hairstyle one day to feel how important it is to be able to change trivial things in your life.

DIANA: I'd like to be a queen of people's hearts, in people's hearts, but I don't see myself being queen of this country. I don't think many people will want me to be queen. INTERVIEWER: Why do you think they've decided that? DIANA: I think it is because I do things differently, because I don't go by a rule book, because I lead from the heart, not the head - albeit* that's got me into trouble in my work.

Surprise someone with an act of kindness
Go a step further... Don't just help someone, but surprise them with an act of kindness... Offer them fresh juice or cookies you've made yourself. Give them a sweet, a pack of chips, or a bottle of water - it will definitely make their day.
A postman always goes from place to place, in all weather conditions, to deliver letters and packages. He would certainly enjoy a fresh juice.
In many towns and cities there are people who deliver goods from one place to another - from a shop to our home - from one country to another.
A delivery man visits every single neighborhood of our city to deliver pizzas. He usually works at night and quite often in bad weather and difficult circumstances. He would definitely enjoy a takeaway cup of tea or/and a cookie.
There are also those who come to our house or neighborhood to collect our garbage or to clean the streets. These people constantly visit our neighborhood, and we often don't even bother to say a 'hello', a 'thank you', or give a gift for helping us in our everyday life.
Have you ever thought that there are people out there who remove our garbage for us? Have you ever seen them collecting it? If not, try to spot them during the day. You cuold offer them something to improve their day. A bottle of cold water or a soft drink would be much appreciated by them!
You can also record what you do and upload it, to show others how kindness can be spread.
But first make sure that you have asked for the other person's permission!
Can you think of another professional worker who would love a treat from you since they often pass by your home? Who else do you think would enjoy a little surprise, and what can you offer them?

Nelson Mandela “A winner is a dreamer who never gives up.”
Nelson Mandela was the president of South Africa from 1994-1999. He was the first black president of South Africa. Free Free Mandela Mandela

Full name: Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela Born: July 18, 1918, Mvezo, South Africa Died: December 5, 2013, Johannesburg Best known for: Being a human rights activist, and being the first black president of South Africa. Free Mandela
Stop Stop Racis m
What did Nelson Mandela do? Mandela worked tirelessly to promote the rights of non-white people in South Africa. He fought against an unfair, racist system called apartheid which was established by the white minority of South Africa. He organized strikes and demonstrations to protest against apartheid. He also encouraged black participants to actively violate laws that were unfair. For this action he was arrested and prosecuted in 1962.
Apartheid
The word apartheid means “apartness” in Afrikaans, a language spoken in South Africa.
Apartheid was a system of racial segregation where South Africans were required to classify themselves as white, black, or Asian. Blacks could not marry whites, work in white-only jobs, or travel through restricted areas without carrying a passbook. Blacks could not even vote or own property. As a result of this severe system, nine million blacks were stripped of their homes and jobs as the South African government forced them to relocate to "homelands"— areas specifically designated for black residents.
Mandela received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993 for peacefully dismantling the apartheid regime and laying the foundation for democracy. In addition to the Nobel Peace Prize, he won over 250 other awards.

He loved many different sports, and even used sport as part of his activism. He believed that sport “has the power to change the world… it has the power to inspire. It has the power to unite people in a way that little else does. It speaks to youth in a language they understand. Sport can create hope where once there was only despair. It is more powerful than government in breaking down racial barriers.”
The day after his funeral in 2013 a statue of Mandela was unveiled in front of the Union Building in Pretoria.

After serving 27 years in prison, Mandela walked out smiling and fully embracing everyone, including those who had locked him up in jail.. Surprisingly, he was not angry and never thought of revenge. Mandela chose instead the values of forgiveness and reconciliation and the statue is there to remind us of these virtues . The tallest figurative sculpture of Mandela, the statue is 9-meters high. It is made of bronze, and weighs 3.5 tons.
In 2009, the United Nations proclaimed Mandela’s birthday (July 18th) to be Nelson Mandela International Day. The holiday asks people to spend 67 minutes doing something good for others—67 minutes representing the number of years he spent working toward change.
Mandela was imprisoned from 1962 to 1990 for treason and conspiracy against the government. He had been sentenced to life in prison and was allowed only one 30-minute visit from a single person every year, and could send and receive two letters a year.
Mandela didn’t hide his faults or failings.
27 years in jail
Despite his unfair imprisonment, Mandela's greatness could be seen in his attitude when he came out of prison. :
He held no bitterness.
Mandela did not seek self-glory.
Mandela did not seek revenge.
There are many stories about Mandela that many find hard to believe. Mandela always showed great courage and chivalry, and people could not imagine themselves ever doing the same.

Re-enact a Mandela interview
Re-enact: act out a past event.
The following is from an interview that Mandela gave to Oprah Winfrey for the magazine "O" in 2001. This interview shows what an exceptional leader Mandels was.
Your challenge is to read the interview carefully and re-enact it. Pretend that you are Mandela or Oprah Winfrey, find a friend to play one of the two characters. Pay attention to their words (which are full wisdom). You can also record the interview to hear it later and see if you re-enacted it well. Repeat the interview as many times as needed in order to perfect it. Oprah: You once told me that humility is one of the greatest qualities a leader can have. Did you come out of prison a more humble man? Nelson Mandela: If you are humble, you are no threat to anybody. Some behave in a way that dominates others. That's a mistake. If you want the cooperation of humans around you, you must make them feel they are important—and you do that by being genuine and humble. You know that other people have qualities that may be better than your own. Let them express them. Oprah: Maya Angelou says that humility is knowing your place in the world. It's understanding that you are not the first person who has ever done anything important. Nelson Mandela: That is a truism. Oprah: One reason I hold you and your comrades in such high reverence is that you maintained your dignity in the face of oppression. You must be proud of yourself for that. Nelson Mandela: You are very generous, Oprah. All I can tell you is that if I am the person you say I am, I was not always that man. Oprah: At the end of the magazine each month, I write a column called "What I Know for Sure". What do you know for sure? Nelson Mandela: I know that my wife will always support me. And I know that, throughout the world, there are good men and women concerned with the greatest challenges facing society today—poverty, illiteracy, and disease. Oprah: Do you fear death? Nelson Mandela: No. Shakespeare put it very well: "Cowards die many times before their deaths; the brave never taste of death but once. Of all the wonders that I yet have heard, it seems to me most strange that men should fear; seeing that death, a necessary end, will come when it will come." When you believe that, you disappear under a cloud of glory. Your name lives beyond the grave—and that is my approach. Remember: You can also record the interview, so you can learn from your mistakes when you listen it later.
Tips: 1.Focus on the words and pronounce them correctly. 2.Focus on the meaning and use the right tone. 3.Try to be as natural as possible.

Be Grateful to Others! 'When I reached Johannesburg in the 1940s, many people were kind to me and helped me in various ways—but when I finished my studies and qualified as a lawyer, I got busy with politics and never thought of them. It was only when I was in jail that I wondered, "What happened to so-and-so? Why didn't I go back and say thank you?" I had not behaved like a human who appreciates hospitality and support. I decided that if I ever got out of prison, I would make it up to those people or to their children and grandchildren. That is how I was able to change my life— by knowing that if somebody does something good to you, you have to respond.' Nelson Mandela

William Wilberforce
Superpower:
Resilience
William Wilberforce William Wilberforce was a British politician and philanthropist. He was a leader of the movement to end the slave trade.
Full Name: William Wilberforce Born: 24 August 1759 in England Died: 29 July 1833 Best known for: The abolition of the slave trade Wilberforce helped found philanthropic groups which helped those in need like: The Society for Bettering the Cause of the Poor The Church Missionary Society The British and Foreign Bible Society The Anti-slavery Society
This was the Anti-slavery Society logo
It was designed in 1787 as a seal and was an extremely successful image which appeared on bookplates, coat buttons, wax seals, medals, leaflets and pots. It is probably the first example of a 'logo' designed to support a political cause.
“You may choose to look the other way but you can never say again that you did not know.” ― William Wilberforce
Superpower: Resilience
This is a well-known William Wilberforce quote. It formed the last part of his speech to Parliament stressing that there was no excuse for the British Government not to take action against the slave trade.
What did Wilberforce do? Wilberforce fought for the abolition of the slave trade and for 18 years he regularly introduced anti-slavery motions in Parliament. His efforts finally bore fruit in 1807, when the British Parliament finally abolished the slave trade in the British Empire. Wilberforce then worked to ensure the slave trade laws were enforced and that slavery in the British Empire was eradicated. He was a persistent and effective politician, partly due to his natural charm and partly to his resilient character.
Slave trading was abolished in 1807. Slavery itself was abolished in 1833.
William entered politics and in 1780, at the age of twenty-one and while still a student, he was elected Member of Parliament for Hull.
It is estimated that 10 to 12 million enslaved Africans were transported to America between the 16th and 19th centuries.
How the Slave Trade Worked:
In the West Indies (Central America) Africans were sold as slave workers to owners of coffee, tobacco, cocoa, sugar, and cotton plantations. They were sold either at slave auctions or at markets with other goods and services.
British, Portuguese and French were involved in the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade from the 16th century. Slaves bought in Africa were transported to the West Indies. Due to the terrible conditions on the ships a high percentage died during the voyage.

Any ideas what this picture shows?
William's first speech about the slave trade lasted 3.5 hours
This is a plan of the British slave ship Brookes, showing how 454 slaves were accommodated on board to maximize space in the ship's hold.
Slave traders regarded the African slaves as cargo to be transported to the Americas as quickly and cheaply as possible.
This trade was called Triangular Trading. Traders loaded ships in Europe with goods that were popular in Africa. They sailed to Africa and exchanged the goods for slaves. They then crossed the Atlantic Ocean, which was a two-month journey (this was called the Middle Passage).
Wilberforce's Anti-Slavery Campaign: People in England in the 1700s and 1800s were either unaware of what was
Informing people about the slave trade
happening in the Middle Passage, or were in denial about the slave trade and it's atrocities. They had to see it with their own eyes in order to believe the terrible transport conditions, the cruel treatment, and sometimes the torture of the Africans.

Eleanor Roosevelt
Her Superpower:
Assertiveness
Eleanor Roosevelt “No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.”
What did Eleanor Roosevelt do? Eleanor Roosevelt was the US First Lady from 1933 to 1945. She was married with Franklin Delano Roosevelt and she worked hard to promote human rights.
Eleanor Roosevelt was fighting for the people's right in every aspect of her life. She didn't focus only for human rights of American people but also for the rest of the world. Eleanor Roosevelt became the United Nations delegate in 1946. In this role, she became a driving force behind the U.N.’s Declaration of Human Rights, which over 50 member-states eventually worked together to compose.
Full name: Anna Eleanor Roosevelt Born: 11 October, 1884 in USA Died: 7 November, 1962 Best known for: Being USA First Lady and an active political activist who worked for human rights.
Eleanor Roosevelt was a strong supporter of antilynching laws and despite the lack of her husband's support she worked to outlaw lynching. This work earned her a lot of enemies, as well as some death threats. and in the 1950s, the Ku Klux Klan put a $25,000 bounty on her head.
Her Superpower:
During her time as First Lady of the White House, Eleanor Roosevelt would hold press conferences where only female journalists were welcome. As a result, many news agencies ended up hiring their first female reporters, breaking new ground for women across the USA.
Assertiveness
Lynching is the public killing of an individual without the use of a court trial.
Eleanor Roosevelt would never allowed panic and grief justify prejudice. Even in the aftermath of Pearl Harbor, she publicly urged Americans not to target Japanese-Americans out of revenge for the attack on Pearl Harbor.
Being assertive for Eleanor Roosevelt was a quality that followed her in every aspect of her life. Eleanor wrote six weekly strong opiniated articles as part of a newspaper column titled "My Day". In this column she discussed all sorts of matters and she clearly expressed her own opinion. She also addressed freely her own personal life. During the nearly three decades she wrote the column, she only missed a single week—when her husband Franklin died in 1945.
Eleanor Roosevelt used her newspaper column and her radio broadcast to encourage Americans to write her. In 1933 she received around 300,000 letters and cards. She often worked late into the night reading her correspondence and trying to answer.
Roosevelt was well known about the fancy hats she used to wear. They were so fancy and different every time that she also received hate letters from American citizens. Roosevelt also used to wear furs because at the time there was a sincere way to keep your body warm. Unfortunately back then minorities and women didn't have their basic rights, so people like Roosevelt had to fought for them first and then for animals rights
Roosevelt was a big animal lover as she had a sweet dog named: Fala. However, the human consciousness back then was discriminateing pets from wild animals like wolves, coyotes and bears
Dear Madam: I am a great admirer of your distinguished husband and have the utmost respect for his talented wife. But who the hell picks those terrible hats for you? Permit me to suggest you appoint your pretty young daughter to select your hats hereafter. You owe it to your “public” to appear properly dressed. Sincerely, A. Married Man
Roosevelt's assertiveness was evident in many cases especially when the situation demanded a clear action to help people's lives! What Eleanor Roosevelt has done the days after the bombing at Pearl Harbor remained in History. Elleanor Roosevelt was the first federal official to speak to the American people after USA had been attacked at pearl harbor by the empire of Japan.
