I am sorry I missed this panel, as I talked it over in brief with -- was it kphoebe? -- and the first phrase off my lips was Mau-Mau. Hello? And the ANC, and The Battle of Algiers (back in print!), and...!
Aside from the whole "Whoops, not actually talking about literature" issue, it's a logical failure to posit any one revolution as an individual movement.

Oh wait, I forgot, Gandhi's not from Europe.
