130 - Mahatma Gandhi and the Indian Revolution

We talked last episode about the Communist Revolution in China, and apparently there was a two for one special on revolutions, because this episode also has a revolution, but this one is VERY different than what happened in China.  Part of the reason that the revolutions were so different was that what is about to happen in India is not a communist revolution.  Communist revolutions are usually destructive, as the old order of things is being aggressively done away with, and so communism is expecting to do away with the old order by using force and violence.   The Indian revolution is going to be done exactly the opposite, using peace and non-violence.  And that is largely due to the person who is going to lead the revolution in India - Mohandas Gandhi.
