Film Lesson: "Gandhi"

Mahatma Gandhi was a person who cared for his nation. He helped fight against the Britains for India"s independence using non-violence methods. By not fighting physically with hands and/or weapons they were civil and if any authorized officer were to attack them in a harmful way the ones who ended up looking bad were not the Indians but the britains them self. Gandhi was arrested more than often by the britains to slow down his movement, but by arresting him they just ended up looking bad by arresting a innoncent man. The britain taxed salt and salt in the tem so, gandhi made salt because in the type of weather they live in they need water and salt. Gandhi was a leader and a great influence on the movement of non-violence for independence of India.

"The White Man's Burden"

I think that Rudyard Kipling meant that "the White Man's Burden" was to rule over land and encourage cultural development. As I read the analysis it seems that Kipling viewed non-European culture as childish and demonic. I agree that Kipling was trying to say that, but I think he's wrong in all aspects in thinking that non-European culture childish and demonic.
As years go by the U.S remains imperialistic till this day. A great example of the United States of America being imperialistic is the war going on in Iraq. The U.S wants to take over Iraq and make it a democracy while Iraq doesn't want to. Seeing the war thats going on it seems that even after 100 years, we are living "the White Man Burden".
