After Gandhi
One Hundred Years of Nonviolent Resistance
This nonfiction chapter book explores the work and legacy of Mohandas Gandhi through 15 profiles of activists who chose nonviolent resistance as the path to change. The book focuses not so much on peacemakers as on heroic individuals who were in direct physical danger and who chose to respond with nonviolence. The profiles include such well-known figures as Martin Luther King, Jr., Nelson Mandela, and Csar Chavez.
