In the station waiting room ,which is dark and bitterly cold, a well dressed
young Indian man is sitting .In his pocket there is a first class ticket
from Durban to Pretoria , but he has only done part of the journey .A
few hours earlier, the guard had asked police to take him off the
train. A white passenger wanted to ride in the first class compartment but not while an Indian man was there .To the railway company and
the police ,this was quite normal.
But not to Mohandas Gandhi. As the night goes on , he wonders what
to .Should he go back to India? Or should he fight against this
injustice ? By morning .Gandhi has decided to fight-and he has taken a
first step on the path that will one day make him a leader loved and
followed by millions ,even years after his death .
