“Nonviolent, respectful protest was the essence of Gandhi’s life mission. To see the desecration of this magnificent statue only underscores the need for more people to study Gandhi’s teachings, not unilaterally erase him from the public discourse. This was a shameful act.”—Congressman Ro Khanna of California, issuing a statement after vandals toppled a Gandhi statue in Davis, California, on Jan. 26, sawing off the feet and half the head.
