Ramachandra Guha Quotes

For Perhaps The First Time In Public, He Used The Neutral 'Africans' Instead Of The Pejorative 'Kaffirs'. The Change In Language Reflected A Deeper Change In His Way Of Thinking About The World. When He First Came To South Africa, Gandhi Had Pleaded For Indians To Be Distinguished From Africans, Whom He Then Considered 'uncivilized'. Now, Fifteen Years Later, He Brought All Races Within A Single Ambit. They All Had Similar Hopes, And Would One Day Have The Same Rights. In The Future, Indians And Africans Would Be Absolutely Free Men, Mingling With Boers And Britons In A Nation Where One's Citizenship Did Not Depend On The Colour Of One's Skin.
