he wanted to change the segregation laws using a peaceful protest.
he started by trying to change the law of all black residents having to carry an identification card with them at all times. this was unfair and inconvenient because a white person could stop them at any time and there was no reason for the blacks to be treated so differently.
Gandhi organised a meeting place and gathered some black men to join in with his peaceful protest, he also invited a newspaper reporter and the police turned up.
after a speech, Gandhi started to burn all of the black men's passes. the police got involved and persistently smacked Gandhi round the head and stomach with a bat. even though he was being punished so severely Gandhi continued to put the paper in the fire. eventually he was knocked out and had to stop but the ext day the reporter wrote how Gandhi had been assaulted by the police.
obviously Gandhi hadn't actually broken any laws so his first Pretoria protest worked.
he continued to create other protests which succeeded.
