The Real Gandhi
By Dr. Kaukab Siddique
The real Gandhi was a racist. His propaganda is built up by fake stories. Here I summarize an important study done on him by Lynn Ngugi:
Gandhi said, Africans are dirty, troublesome, and live like animals. In his entire tenure, Gandhi did not want equality, but superiority for Indians. He supported both Whites and Indians above Africans. He was a collaborator against Africans with the British.
He also abused women, including his wife. He would get his female relatives to lie next to him unclothed. For example, in a show of “self-control,” he slept next to his naked niece.
The bowls for defecation were to be cleaned only by his wife.
He himself took Western medicine, but would not let his wife take it when she was not well. Eventually, this led to her demise.
Even Africans were fooled for some time. But he did nothing for Africans. His own ashram revealed his racism: It was segregated. Historians are waking up, and as a result of their research, his statues are being removed in many African countries. He supported the inferiority of Africans at every turn.
He did not want Africans to live near Indians. He made no effort to end segregation. He said please don’t include us with Africans. He supported purity of races. In his mind was a hierarchy: Europeans at the top, Indians next, and, at the bottom Africans.
Not surprisingly, in the Zulu war, he supported the British.
