Actually, Ghandi WAS racist. During his youth while working in Africa, he wrote a conspicuos paper saying that Indians should not be confused with Africans, as the first are clean, educated and civilized people, and the seconds lacked of manners, higiene, ect.
I dont know if he sustained that point of view the rest of his life. But he did during those years.
the fact about Ghandi surprises me, but actually it prooves my point. it's too easy to consider every racist as 'small-brained and dumb'. It's also preaching to the choir. You have to make an ad that has the ambition to convert racists. saying they are dumb will not work

By God's grace, Einstein and Marx are not alive to see that they are being compared to Gandhi.
