Gandhi and King: The Power of Nonviolent Resistance

Monday January 19, 2004
Each year on the third Monday of January schools, federal offices, post office and banks across America close as we celebrate the birth, the life and the dream of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

The dominant force in America's civil rights movement, few have electrified a nation more than Dr. King, with his ardent policy of nonviolent protest and his quest for justice.

Coming out in June of this year is a comparative analysis of Mohandis Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr., two men who dedicated their lives to nonviolent resistence to oppression.
