Imagine you are Viceroy Lord Irwin, and you have received a letter from Mohandas K. Gandhi. The letter requests your help in dismantling British rule in India for the good of the Indian people, who are suffering from poverty, due in part to British rule. You disagree with Gandhi’s point of view and support British rule in India.



Write a one or two paragraph letter in response to Gandhi's letter(Text from Letter to Viceroy, Lord Irwin (1).docx)Preview the document. Remember to use your knowledge of the subject and rhetoric gained throughout the discussions to guide your response. (7-10 sentences)

1 During the British occupation of India, they exerted colonial monopolies and control against

the Indian people. The Indians rebelled against these monopolies, similar to the American revolution

against the British. However, the movement in India was largely driven by nonviolent acts of civil

disobedience, led by Mahatma Gandhi. Throughout his letter, Gandhi applies a conciliatory, yet forceful

tone, he places the blame onto the British, and he continually repeats his plan for the march in order to

convince the British to reverse their policies before he acts.

2 Throughout his letter, Gandhi is conciliatory and respectful. He writes to the British with the

intent of asking for the reversal of a law, so he knows that he must be polite and courteous. His

demeanor conveys to the British his sense of servitude to the British in lines 16-20. However, he is not

stepping down, but rather standing up to the British respectfully. He states that he “does not seek to

harm your people,” which simultaneously reassures the British of nonviolence but also conveys Gandhi’s

sense of urgency. He is going to act, he is going to do something, and he is informing the British of it.

Gandhi is not submitting; he is asserting himself, but with respect. Through his letter, he uses imperative

verbs, but states them politely so to not convey a violent tone. He says, “I invite you,” which sounds

polite, but indirectly is an order to the British to reverse their ways. He finishes his letter by reminding

the British that he is not threatening them, but merely reminding them that he will act if they do not.

Through the letter, his tone is both respectful to the British but is also clear and forceful in its message.

3 Gandhi’s rhetorical tactics place the blame onto the British. When he continually reassures

them of his nonviolence, he is demonstrating that the Indians are not going to act violently, thereby

indirectly asking the British if they too will follow the Indians. He uses phrases such as “unless the British

nation…retraces its steps” and “if the British commerce with India is purified of greed.” These

statements are Gandhi’s way of placing responsibility on to the British. They evoke the sense that the

violence and conflict are the British’s fault not the Indians. In this way, Gandhi leaves it to the British to

decide whether they want to stop their actions, thereby evoking a sense of guilt and responsibility in the

British. These methods serve Gandhi’s purpose of asking the British to revise their laws without

out rightly asking. His methods make the British the aggressors and, in this way, makes the British

consider their position more fully.

4 By repeating his plans to march, Gandhi is showing the British that he will not make any

surprises. He, from the start of the passage, informs the British of his nonviolent plans. By ensuring that

the British know of his plans, he is showing a sense of responsibility and honesty in his actions. This

causes the British to regard him more favorably, because they recognize that his actions and motives are

clear and honest. This will serve to make them more receptive to his demands. Gandhi also describes

the situation in such a way to make the British pity the Indians. He calls the tax the “most iniquitous

from a poor man’s standpoint,” and he wonders how they “have submitted to the cruel monopoly for so

long.” By describing the situation in such terms, he gives reason for the British to pity the Indians, and

again to see the harm they have caused them. These all serve to further Gandhi’s case.

5 Throughout his letter to the British, Gandhi evokes a sense of imperative, yet polite force,

evokes a sense of guilt in the British, and clearly states his demands.

Read the excerpt from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's "I Have a Dream" speech.

[1] I am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation.

[2] Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.

[3] But one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free; one hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination; one hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity; one hundred years later, the Negro is still languished in the corners of American society and finds himself in exile in his own land.

Which phrase from the text provides the best context clue to determine the meaning of "manacles" in paragraph 3?

One hundred years later
Chains of discrimination
Lonely island of poverty
Vast ocean of material prosperity
