This vintage clip brings you the first recorded video (with sound) of
Mahatma
Gandhi, who led India’s nonviolent
resistance movement against British colonial rule. Shot some time
before 1947 (when independence finally came), the video runs a mere four
minutes. But it’s enough to show you the serene and fearless
determination that made Gandhi such a forceful figure, and inspired Martin
Luther King Jr. to end segregation in America a few years later.
Great find by @Hudsonette
