Today in Labor History September 9, 1828: Leo Tolstoy, Russian author and playwright was born. He is most famous for novels like Anna Karina, and War and Peace. He chose the name for the latter after reading French anarchist Proudhon’s publication called War and Peace. Tolstoy also wrote many short stories, an autobiography and many works of nonfiction. After witnessing a public execution in 1857, he wrote: "The truth is that the State is a conspiracy designed not only to exploit, but above all to corrupt its citizens ... Henceforth, I shall never serve any government anywhere." In the 1870s, he experienced a profound spiritual awakening, which led him to become a Christian anarchist and pacifist, and which he wrote about in his non-fiction work Confession (1882). He also wrote about nonviolent resistance in The Kingdom of God Is Within You (1894), which influenced Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr. and Wittgenstein. He was repeatedly nominated for Nobel prizes in both literature and peace.

The footprints up to where #Gandhi was shot

Adams: In India I saw #Gandhi’s footprints inside the path where he was assassinated. The bullet may have taken away our leader, but we must continue his path

Adams: We must be like #Gandhi or the bullet took away his vision. #MLK followed Gandhi. I’m Gandhi-like, I think like Gandhi, I act like Gandhi, I want to be like Gandhi

[Gandhi-lite, more like: has some odd beliefs]

#EricAdams: If #Gandhi was here today, he’d deal with gun violence

Considering he was assassinated with a gun, I’d say so :D https://twitter.com/MichaelKuz/status/1691537920866369536

Today in Labor History August 14, 1846: The authorities jailed Henry David Thoreau for refusing to pay his taxes in protest of the Mexican War. Aside from this early act of American civil disobedience and war resistance, Thoreau also wrote, “Walden.” His essay, “Civil Disobedience,” influenced generations of activists and writers, including Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Tolstoy, Yeats, Proust, Hemingway, Upton Sinclair and Martin Buber.

Rahul #Gandhi (#INC|Centro): "Modi ha ucciso l’India con le sue politiche, Il nostro primo ministro non si è recato nel #Manipur, dopo le violenze di stampo etnico, perché per lui non è parte dell’India. Hanno ucciso l’India in Manipur. Le loro politiche non hanno ucciso solo il Manipur, ma l’intera India."

Hay una frase de Mahatma #Gandhi que dice: “Olvidar cómo excavar la #tierra y cuidar el suelo es olvidarnos de nosotros mismos”.
No se equivocaba porque justamente somos parte de la #naturaleza y de ahí la importancia que tiene acercarse a ella para conectarse con nuestra #identidad.
A la naturaleza, habría que llamarla la #vitaminaN.

#Gandhi: “#Vaccination is a barbarous practice… one of the most fatal of all the delusions… not to be found even among the so-called savage races”

Milions d'indis van col·laborar amb el govern del Raj Britànic, ho sé, però fixem-nos en els millors, no en els mediocres servils. Imagineu en #Gandhi fent campanya per obtenir escó al "Parliament"?
