Saying His Peace: Rare Recording of Speech by Gandhi Landed in Safe, if Unknowing, Hands. [Via Linkfilter]
People like to talk good about Gandhi but don't like to follow him. Say something against Gandhi in this country and the mob is ready to kill you ( this is very much against what Gandhi said or taught). So, it doesn't really make any difference if there's another piece of his recording available, or perhaps the Americans can use it better than the Indians...
