RE: [ARTICLE] He Wanted to Revolutionize India. Did He Achieve It?

in #history8 years ago

I find it fascinating that the influence of a person can extend not only beyond one's time but also beyond one's borders.

It is not simply enough to have a superior ideology. It is necessary for one's deeds and even notoriety to provide the up-currents necessary to fill that ideology's wings - or even those of something as simple as an idea.

I had never heard of the salt march. That is indeed inspiring and should provide food for thought for those of us who have perhaps grown too resigned to resorting to conflict as being the answer to one's antagonistic forces in life.

Sort:  

I bet Gandhi would be a killer marketing agent or youtuber, if he had lived today

You may very well be correct, even if I don't associate Ghandi with the term "killer". ;cP

Of course, to get noticed today is a lot harder with the rampant unsustainable population growth we've been seeing this past half century or more.

ye, it's!
