Sixty years ago today, January 30th, Gandhi was assassinated. Yet Gandhi’s teachings of social, political and ecologic non-violence, small scale local economy and production by the masses rather than mass production, are just as relevant now as they were six decades ago.

Resurgence Magazine have produced a short 7 minute film where Resurgence editor and ecologist, Satish Kumar, shows how Gandhi’s simple but profound teachings echo the core principles of ecology and sustainability.
