Part 7/9:
Central to the strategy of resisting the US Empire is the concept of "truth force," rooted in Mahatma Gandhi's philosophy of peaceful resistance through truth-telling. This nonviolent approach advocates for withdrawing cooperation with oppressive systems, thereby undermining the very foundations of imperial power without resorting to violence. Gandhi posited that British rule in India was upheld not by force but by the consent of the governed, emphasizing that the control exerted by one nation over another can be undone through collective refusal.
