Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, died on January 30th, 1948. He was a national icon who led the struggle for India's independence from British colonial rule. Unlike today's reformist, who use terrorism, torture, and violence to inflict change, Gandhi was opposed any form of terrorism or violence, instead using only the highest moral standards. His philosophy of nonviolence had influenced national and international nonviolent resistance movements. The Civil Rights movement being a perfect example.
Before the G-man was assassinated, he enjoyed one last meal. It's a bit unusual for my taste in Indian cusine. Mr. Passive-resistance liked it fruity for sure.
His last meal:
Consisted of goat's milk, cooked vegetables, oranges, and a concoction of ginger, sour lemons, and strained butter with the juice of aloe.
Over a bed of basimati rice with garlic nan? Forget about it!
