Watch: How Mahatma Gandhi’s ‘passive resistance’ inspired Nelson Mandela

<p>Mahatma Gandhi inspired millions across the globe with his ideals. From 'non-violence' to 'satyagraha', Gandhi's legacy transcends borders and generations. Among the many that Gandhi inspired was Nelson Mandela, the social rights activist, politician and philanthropist who went on to become South Africa's first Black president.
