Part 1

• Martin Luther King led peaceful protests, calling for equal rights for black people.
• Nelson Mandela and his friends protested against the new “apartheid” laws in South Africa, which separated people because of the colour of their skin.
• Gandhi wanted India to be free from British rule. Gandhi called for everybody to stop work as a protest. The British punished the workers and Gandhi was horrified by the violence.
