What are some similarities between the Indian and African resistance movements?

Two similarities in how India and Vietnam gained their independence during the 20th century were that in both cases, a charismatic leader marshaled nationalist sentiment in the push to escape a European colonial overlord, and in both cases the triggering event toward independence can be traced to the empire-shattering effects of World War II. A major difference in these movements, however, is that India negotiated its independence from the British while Vietnam was forced to undertake armed struggle against the French.
