The man we remember simply as Gandhi was born Mohandas Gandhi in
India in 1869. From an early age he was made keenly aware of the
rigid Hindu caste system of his country, and was heavily influenced
by his mother's ability to fast as a way to control her urges.
Mohandas was married at the age of thirteen and continued his
education, though he struggled as a student. He also struggled to
find himself and to keep his moral center intact. At college in
London, and then later at work in South Africa and India, Gandhi
was appalled at the abject poverty he discovered and by the
widespread denial of civil liberties and political rights he
encountered. He ultimately dedicated his life to the struggle for
fundamental human rights for all Indians.
Read all about the fascinating early years and eventual
accomplishments of this inspiring leader.
