Gandhi

The statue of Gandhi in front of the Indian Embassy on Massachusetts Ave. From the description on the Indian Embassy webpage:

The sculpture of Mahatma Gandhi is cast in bronze as a statue to a height of 8 feet 8 inches. It shows Gandhi in stride, as a leader and man of action evoking memories of his 1930 protest march against salt-tax, and the many padyatras (long marches) he undertook throughout the length and breadth of the Indian sub-continent.

The inscription on the base reads “My life is my message.”

    I wonder if he would do the same sort of thing if he was alive today?
