Don't confuse Obama with Gandhi – Norman Finkelstein

| January 27, 2009

At UBC on January 21, the day after Obama's inauguration, Norman Finkelstein gave a short speech about his research into the life and works of Mahatma Gandhi. He claims there is no comparison between Gandhi, who gave up his life to a cause he believed in, and Barack Obama, who is merely a clever politician coasting on a wave of change that he didn't work to create.
