Martin Luther King attended a lecture on Mahatma Gandhi's nonviolent struggle for freedom for the people of India. Gandhi's teachings had a profound effect on the young Baptist minister. King's trip to India affected King in a profound way, deepening his understanding of non-violent resistance and his commitment to America's struggle for civil right.
hope this helped :)
