Gandhi branded racist as Johannesburg honours freedom fighter

Rory Carroll in Johannesburg

Friday October 17, 2003

The Guardian

It was supposed to honour his resistance to racism in South Africa, but a new statue of Mahatma Gandhi in Johannesburg has triggered a row over his alleged contempt for black people.

The 2.5 metre high (8ft) bronze statue depicting Gandhi as a dashing young human rights lawyer has been welcomed by Nelson Mandela, among others, for recognising the Indian who launched the fight against white minority rule at the turn of the last century.

But critics have attacked the gesture for overlooking racist statements attributed to Gandhi, which suggest he viewed black people as lazy savages who were barely human.

Newspapers continue to publish letters from indignant readers: “Gandhi had no love for Africans. To [him], Africans were no better than the ‘Untouchables’ of India,” said a correspondent to The Citizen.

Others are harsher, claiming the civil rights icon “hated” black people and ignored their suffering at the hands of colonial masters while championing the cause of Indians.

Unveiled this month, the statue stands in Gandhi Square in central Johannesburg, not far from the office from which he worked during some of his 21 years in South Africa.

The British-trained barrister was supposed to have been on a brief visit in 1893 to represent an Indian company in a legal action, but he stayed to fight racist laws after a conductor kicked him off a train for sitting in a first-class compartment reserved for whites.

Outraged, he started defending Indians charged with failing to register for passes and other political offences, founded a newspaper, and formed South Africa’s first organised political resistance movement. His tactics of mobilising people for passive resistance and mass protest inspired black people to organise and some historians credit Gandhi as the progenitor of the African National Congress, which formed in 1912, two years before he returned to India to fight British colonial rule.

However, the new statue has prompted bitter recollections about some of Gandhi’s writings.

Forced to share a cell with black people, he wrote: “Many of the native prisoners are only one degree removed from the animal and often created rows and fought among themselves.”

He was quoted at a meeting in Bombay in 1896 saying that Europeans sought to degrade Indians to the level of the “raw kaffir, whose occupation is hunting and whose sole ambition is to collect a certain number of cattle to buy a wife with, and then pass his life in indolence and nakedness”.

The Johannesburg daily This Day said GB Singh, the author of a critical book about Gandhi, had sifted through photos of Gandhi in South Africa and found not one black person in his vicinity.

The Indian embassy in Pretoria declined to comment, as it prepared for President Thabo Mbeki’s visit to India.

Khulekani Ntshangase, a spokesman for the ANC Youth League, defended Gandhi, saying the critics missed the bigger picture of his immense contribution to the liberation struggle.

Gandhi’s offending comments were made early in his life when he was influenced by Indians working on the sugar plantations and did not get on with the black people of modern-day KwaZulu-Natal province, said Mr Ntshangase.

“Later he got more enlightened.”

He looks mighty fine.

LOL….@ Smartie

He has a syndicated late night radio show. He still looks good but he needs to get rid of that big azz cuff in those jeans tho…..

Well, I’m officially stannin for Al B Sure..I used to think he was UGLY back in the day…he grew up nicely tho lol

i love him

He’s got those short ass Matthew Mcconaughey fingers. I like a man with long fingers. I’d still let him tickle my taco though.

Still fine!!

He still has it. Go Al B!

He looks cool in this picture. Does he have a girl friend? If I can date him, I will remove my ad from that millioniare dating site above.

I’d still do him! Oh wait, is he broke? Neva mind.

Al was the FIRE back then. Every sista I knew was into Al. Women seriously felt that brother.

Kim Porter fukked with Al B? I knew Al had a son, but I didn’t know Kim was his mother.

Yep that Kim is a profeshunal groupie ho

Oh my god. AL B.Sure can still get it.

LMAO @ Smartie!

Al B Sure! still is a cutie after all these years.

I actually think he looks BETTER older!

He is hot lit hot butter.

@ Royal

I love the Last Dragon.

Where is that guy @ now, I wonder?

“….Could U show me some moves????…”

Now I want a fortune cookie………………thx.

I think his son with Kim, “Quincy” looks better than Al.

I think Kim has cute children….

Mahogany-

I saw Taimak walking on 77th & Amsterdam here in Manhattan in August. I knew it was him cause he looks EXACTLY the same as he did in the movie. Not a gray hair or wrinkle and the body was tight. He’s about 5’9-5’10 and doesn’t look a day past 30. Some men just got it like that and he’s definitely one of them.

Mahogany-

For real??? That brotha was fine!! Not so much in Last Dragon but once he grew up and filled out! Wonder what he is doing now… It’s a shame we don’t see him doing TV or movies these days..

What’s AL B doing these days? Producing? He definitely looks better now than he did in the throwback vid. He was still fine then (but looking maad young). He has an adorable smile.

Damn Smartie, that’s what’s up!

I knew he had good genes.

thx for curing my curiosity

This is kind of Ironic to see pics of him. Me and some of my old high school buddies got together this past weekend and they were kind of ragging me about looking like him. Back in high school that was my nickname and I hated it but I loved the attention girls gave me though. AL B. still got and me too. LOL

Man, Forget P-Diddy Kim get u some more AL B SURE!!

OMG – HE IS STILL FIIIIIIIIIIINE AS HELL!!!!!

Question to Kim Porter: How you go from this perfect specimen of a man to Diddy??

It must be hard to be a dad when Puffy is your kids step father. There isn’t anything he could buy the kid that Puffy couldn’t do better. Al B hasn’t had a hit in a minute so I am sure those child support checks are slim to none.

you got a real point Muff Diver I’m high yellow and it seems to me women act more color struck than men do. Most men don’t care as long as you are pretty and fine we will get with you. I myself personally don’t discriminate.

WHY must some idiot ALWAYS try to turn -ish into “light-skinned/dark-skinned”??? Al B. is fine as hell point blank!!! Idris Elba is fine too…black is black dumbasses! WTF??

@Afiya

i was thinking the same thing

Muff Diver speaks the TRUTH!!!!

Hold up, did somebody say that dude in the pic with him looks like the crypt keeper on crack???? LMBAO!

Get ready for what nothing. I wonder if he’s taking care of his son by Kim.

I thought puffy’s babymama had a kid with christopher williams not al b sure?????

Why are their young boys on this site today? Is it the same young guy pretending to be 3 people? What the hell?

@nelly
