Gandhi

[catiefaye]

I always thought of Gandhi as depicted in the well-known movie starring Ban Kingsley was an accurate depiction of the man and the times. I recently read a biography, though that suggests a very different scene. I have also spoken with some of my Indian friends and every one of them agrees he is far more controversial than many on-lookers know. He created a lot of chaos and would not listen to his colleagues warnings to pause and listen to the people. He had so much influence and people followed him in spite of themselves.

Very fresh perspective, diverging dramatically from the hero I once thought he was. Sure, he did some heroic things, but he also did some quite devastating things, too.

Anyone else read much about the man? Opinions?
