14.15 Kasturba Gandhi, Wife of Mahatma Gandhi
Manage episode 478728345 series 2870202
Gandhi is among the most documented figures of the 20th century. Most of these sources reveal astonishingly little about his wife Kasturba. But he actually credited her with teaching him the principles of nonviolent resistance. This episode tells the story of her transformation from an ordinary Hindu girl to a woman leading protests against the British Empire.
