As you remember, it started with Confederate officers. Then they went after Christopher Columbus. Then they told us that George Washington & Thomas Jefferson were slave owners.
So it was only a matter time before we got to Mahatma Gandhi.
Over at Carleton University, the social justice warriors are now after Gandhi:
The accusations are many: That Gandhi slept naked next to young girls to test his sexual restraint; that he worked to prevent the untouchable caste from being recognized as a distinct political group; that he routinely referred to black Africans using the slur ‘ kaffir’ and demanded Indians in South Africa not be classed alongside natives.
I’ll just say this: Will we have any statues left?
Of course, the solution to this, and so much more, is for the universities to tell the social justice warriors to shut up and do their homework. Unfortunately, such school leadership is missing very badly these days. It sure looks like the insane are running the asylum, or something like that.
