150 years ago was born ceremonies have been taking place across india where gandhi made the campaign for independence but it was during 2 decades living in a positive south africa where the freedom movement lead and the values that came to define him nonviolent resistance in recent years all of a gun just time on the continent has been viewed in a different light. gandhi arrived in south africa as a young trade lawyer called mohandas the walls of the cottage where he once lived now a museum tell the story of how his experience of apartheid she his life and changed the world. he had this notion of nonviolence passive resistance of a trickle down a lot in our times right now on the streets of johannesburg it's a legacy that ensures even if the details are vague and only don't know about their history of. the right to marry it's like that they don't know but they know that is
7:36 pm
that is from india in india and here all these employees are you personally deceased with how we're different races know that it's 4 legs. but some people say that one in india. that you get in england live in south africa . and there's a big incident on the train. with the games. but if you like and. what is. that moment when gandhi refused to leave the white only compartment on a train opened his eyes to injustice set in motion a life dedicated to nonviolent resistance and carved himself into history. yet his reputation here is 10 years with accusations that while he fought for indians in south africa he ignored the plight of black people often using racists liars.
7:37 pm
good person yes human yes and the rest as for anybody else to church. it was on leaving south africa that gandhi's hosts named him mahatma meaning venerable saul a century later the name remains and so to the criticisms of his complex character . now to shed some more light on this complex character let's bring in doug daley come born from the institute of african studies at the university of. come to the africa dr so you were part of a move to take down gandhi's statue from your campus tell us why. yes it was based on primary firsthand research now a lot of people have lots of perceptions about gandhi but very few of it is based on his actual writings and his actual words so when the statue appeared because me
7:38 pm
myself i'm a senior research fellow and all i do is research i was already quite aware of who gandhi was in relation to the black people that is the indigenous people of africa so when you actually go through his writings he refers to african people as savages after as half heathens as one degree remove from animals so whatever he is to his own upper caste endo ariens as he called himself and fellow colonists as he called the british what he was in relation to black people not just through his words but there was actions that he fought against those who knew people in the bottom rebellion that he fought to secure segregate the dharm in post and telegraph office is he fought to segregate the jails so that the laboratories that indians had to use were not the same ones that african people you know were allowed to use right so all of these things and then later on in his life he went back to india to fight against the indigenous black people there the idea vices and valleys and so forth and so on you know this is who he was in relation to black people all right i mean
7:39 pm
because of we all talking about you know a great man in history so to say and you know god is universally celebrated as an anti colonial hero and in south africa he did stand up against white minority rule in fact some have even gone as far as arguing that he paved the way for nelson mandela so in some way does he deserve some place in in african history other than some of the things that you have just told us. well you know already you have people who have the perception or gandhi is so great and so forth and so on in my opinion is saying that he paved the way for nelson mandela is not necessarily a compliment because if you look in south africa the problem that the people of south africa suffered from was genocide and not you know apartheid which is just being apart from the ones who are committing the genocide you can look at the same thing people say well martin luther king was so great all problem there was also genocide and i'm referring to the un definition of genocide which is
7:40 pm
a 5 part definition killing members of the group causing serious bodily a member mental harm to members of the group writing about conditions to destroy the group in whole or in part and so forth and so on so again if you look at the problem of black people in the u.s. as well as genocide and not segregation and in the same thing in india so in all 3 places you have the images of mandela of king and of gandhi where the problems that the black people suffer from are is actually tantamount to genocide and is not oh you're all right talk from them meanwhile you know the exact same ones who are doing this are the ones who shove them down our throat so i think this is a major issue all right that's that's all the data come on from the university off gonna now we've covered saddam extensively on this program especially the turmoil around the else to off the phone the president all my shit and the subsequent political developments as we speak in new transitional government is in place and

7:42 pm
a transitional period activists hope the start of the women's football league is one of a series of liberal policies promoting freedom of speech women's rights and the arts. have noticed that here now before the sudanese revolution my goal was to perhaps play outside sudan but sense of kind of place to play in my own country i don't want to play a proud it's better to play in your own country and i believe that. the silky skills on the show wow the 8000 strong crowd was and this was the 1st time i played at the stadium in khartoum it was something really great and special. was it ended in a $22.00 draw was the joy of the players when storing a goal showed how much it meant to everyone involved was and that is a for now from dayton is africa you can catch all our stories on how if size and
