Here are my prepared remarks for the talk I will be delivering at the National Gandhi Museum. (pdf file) https://public.resource.org/Gandhi.Jayanti.2026.10.02.pdf
Riot police out all over town. Massive protests expected. Lots of road closures. Walked the last 1km to the Museum. We’re setting up video now for the event. 9 ambassadors expected, many prayers, one for each religion, then our session.
@carlmalamud I knew you were kinda famous but not infamous. What did you do that is triggering protests this time? 😂
In seriousness, I’m on holiday and not following the news. What are the protests actually about?
@sumisu google CEC cockroach
@carlmalamud oh wow. Calling a massive portion of the population cockroaches definitely leads to a reaction. Youth finding their voices and their power has led to some serious changes in many countries.
When aging and comfy politicians think they can just say stuff like that and there won’t be consequences…
@carlmalamud Hmm, you seem to end up in the thick of things a lot on your trips. Good luck, stay safe!
@carlmalamud Beautiful!
«I posted all those standards and, as we all have learned from Gandhi Ji, before you go to the ocean and make salt without a license, you should be upright and forthright and send a letter to the Government of India and detail what actions you are taking and why those actions are being taken.»
