It's important because Gandhi was MLK's inspiration, as well as being responsible for creating a new nation.
Do you want to know why the Civil Rights Movement and knowing the nation of India exists are important?

Yes, I would like to know. Well, I'd like to know unless you are going to state the obvious reasons like racism, the contributions that came out of India, etc. If it's going to be effecting my current safety or my well-being in the future, then please, continue.
But honestly, who created India and the inspiration of the CRM doesn't really effect my day-to-day life.

India = major player in the world economy
Civil Rights Movement = Everywhere in our social relations within the United States
The United States would be very different if the CRM never happened, and the world would be very different if India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh weren't independent nations. So yes, they do affect your day to day life.
