17

18 INDIA Investments were made to improve transportation and communication systems in the country to help move raw materials and finished goods from the ports to the markets.

19 HOW DID THE BRITISH VIEW THE PEOPLE OF INDIA? From: Minute on Indian Education, presented in 1835 by Thomas Babington Macaulay. Macaulay believed in educating the Indians with English because their native dialects were 'so poor and rude that, until they are enriched from some other quarter, it will not be easy to translate any valuable work into them.' In perhaps the most famous part of the Minute, he stated his intent for English education in India, to 'form a class who may be interpreters between us and the millions whom we govern; a class of persons, Indian in blood and colour, but English in taste, in opinions, in morals, and in intellect.' These people were to then aid in governing and civilizing the natives of India, in order that they would conform to British rule.

20 HOW DID THE BRITISH VIEW THE PEOPLE OF INDIA? Uncivilized with “rude and poor dialects” and needed to be educated and “trained” to be like the English.

21 HOW WAS LIFE DIFFERENT FOR THE BRITISH VS. THE PEOPLE OF INDIA?

22 Some Indians assimilated to British culture, others very against. Best jobs and education were reserved for the British. Essentially life was easy for the British, difficult for Indians.

23 WHY DID THE INDIANS GET FED UP WITH THE BRITISH? 1.Indians could not own their own business if they were in competition with a British business. 2.Indians forced to sell their cotton only to British and then forced to only buy British goods. 3.Millions forced to fight in WWI. Britain promised to end colonization-Lies….

24 WHAT DOES THIS LEAD TO?

25 MEET GANDHI… Encouraged Indians to refuse to follow British laws that were unfair. 1.Civil disobedience: was the refusal to obey unfair laws even if the result was punishment. 2.Non-violence 3.Boycott

26 INDIANS CALL GANDHI MAHATMA WHICH MEANS “GREAT SOUL” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dpjBWw5w444 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dpjBWw5w444 [Gandhi’s first television interview] https://www. youtube.co m/watch?v= ZvnSIOtQ8 hchttps://www. youtube.co m/watch?v= ZvnSIOtQ8 hc [9:35]

27 BRITAIN SLOWLY BEGAN TO OFFER INDIA SMALL FORMS OF INDEPENDENCE. A National Congress ruled by Indian leaders was established in 1885. Indian towns gained more control over their own affairs with the 1935 Government of India Act.

28 IN 1947, BRITAIN OFFERED INDIA FULL INDEPENDENCE. What happened during this same time period that could have affected Britain’s decision? Britain lost billions of dollars during WWII and could no longer financially support India as a colony.

29 RESULTS OF INDEPENDENCE By 1946, disputes broke out among the Indians about how the country should be ruled. The final decision was to divide India into three countries. East and West Pakistan would be created for the Muslims. India would be a Hindu country. –This resulted in conflict among Indians over the decision. –Gandhi was upset with the decision because he believed that all (Muslims and Hindus) should work together for a unified India.
