Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, a worldly acknowledged Indian nationalist leader, who established his country's freedom through a nonviolent revolution saw that all life as arising from a unity of being. Gandhi believed in Ahimsa, the search for nonviol

The nonviolent approach of king was influenced by Gandhi and his release of the Indian nation for British control. But not all people accepted MLK, as they didn’t accept Gandhi, at first. Throughout the nation, impatience with the lack of greater substantive progress encouraged the growth of black militancy. This is where Malcolm X fit in. Especially in the slums of the large Northern cities, King's religious philosophy of nonviolence was increasingly questioned where violence had been the only answer their entire lives. A clear example of this driven hatred and impatience is the rioting in the Watts district of Los Angeles (August 1965). Where after violence had taken place, King was driven out, because the people of that area felt that was the only option left. Just as Malcolm X had felt, it is much easier to hate something and be angry than evaluate yourself and find the best way to concur this hatred. In the cadet program we learn to conquer our fears as small as jumping out of an airplane to the ignorance we find within ourselves.

In the “Letter from Birmingham Jail” King wrote eloquently where his ideas of nonviolence was portrayed:

This self analyzation MLK uses show his education level and give him the advantage to understand and convey protests as crusades and make a local hardship into moral issues of nationwide concern. Finding success in arousing the black masses and drive them into action, MLK found real success when he won the respect of white Americans whom brought not only support but political leverage. The strategy that broke the segregation laws of the South, however, proved inadequate to solve more complex racial problems elsewhere. King was only 39 at the time of his death—a leader in mid-passage who never wavered in his insistence that nonviolence must remain the essential tactic neither of the movement nor in his faith that all Americans would some day attain racial and economic justice.

Bring a major role model of Malcolm X, Marcus Garvey’s ideas of black separatism made Malcolm X mock the passivity of the civil rights movement and abandon both ideas of integration and racial equality calling in its place for black pride, black separatism, and black self-dependence. Black Power drew condemnation from whites for its racially separatist message and although Malcolm demanded rights for people of color he promoted violence. This method of “self-protection,” made him look as an extremist; his guidance was rejected by most civil-rights leaders because of this aggressive approach.
