The individual, checks and balances, freedom, liberty and so forth. As i said, trying to channel arab nationalism into the western camp into the cold war. Ive in looking at how the United States thought about this and the strategy they developed, ive come to the conclusion that there was a kind of map that the americans had that was above all of their all of their policy discussions. A kind of paradigm. I actually started thinking this way. I worked, if i could give you a personal anecdote, i worked in the white house in the george w. Bush administration. And i had a had come from academia, which i thought prepared me for policy work. And then i went to the white house and realized, actually, it prepared me for nothing. But one of the things that really surprised me was somebody who considered himself an expert. In the middle east. At the highest levels have simple ideas in their head.

They talk about them going back to africa. But you have top understand these people, most of them, they were americans. They have been here for three, four, five generations. So it wasnt like they were just going home. They were going back to the continent that their ancestors originally inhabited. It was quite the risk. And so they took their culture, what they knew here there. Some of them took the bad aspects, too. The slavery, but that was all they had ever known. And they built houses like this one because after all, theyre the ones who built this house. There were a lot of, basically, greek revival houses that the freed slaves built in mississippi and africa and across the river was louisiana and liberia which was settled by freed slaves from louisiana.
