And the ignorant part of your statement is that you're treating it like it was MLK Jr's individual choice. You can't get away with explaining it like it was a personal decision of MLK Jr. to whitewash Gandhi, you have to explain why John Dube, S.S. Tema, W.E.B. DuBois, Marcus Garvey, Hubert Harrison, Mordacai Johnson, Martin Luther King Jr., Langston Hughes, Aminu Kano, Kwame Nkrumah, Nnamdi Azikiwe, Nelson Mandela, Albert Luthuli, Desmond Tutu, Julius Nyerere, Kenneth Kaunda, and Joshua Nkomo ALL caped for Gandhi. Dube lived within shouting distance of Gandhi and interacted with him all the time, Tema interacted with him too, DuBois interacted with him regularly, Garvey and Gandhi shared books and letters, Johnson and King went all the way to India to study his ways and interact with those who knew him, a lot of the guys on that list studied Gandhi for YEARS before coming to a conclusion about him.
