Edward Said on Out of Place: A Memoir - Early Years in Palestine, Lebanon, and Egypt (1999)
Edward Wadie Said ( 1 November 1935 -- 25 September 2003)
was a professor of English and Comparative Literature at Columbia
University, a literary theorist, and a public intellectual who was a
founding figure of the critical-theory field of Post-colonialism. Born a
Palestinian Arab in the city of Jerusalem in Mandatory Palestine
(1920--48), he was an American citizen through his father. Said was an
advocate for the political and the human rights of the Palestinian
people and has been described by the journalist Robert Fisk as their
most powerful voice.
As a cultural critic, academic, and writer, Said is best known for the book Orientalism (1978), an analysis of the cultural representations that are the bases of Orientalism, a term he redefined to mean the Western study of Eastern cultures and, in general, the framework of how The West perceives and represents The East. He contended that Orientalist scholarship was, and remains, inextricably tied to the imperialist societies that produced it, which makes much of the work inherently political, servile to power, and therefore intellectually suspect. Orientalism is based upon Said's knowledge of colonial literature, literary theory, and post-structuralist theory. Orientalism, and his other thematically related works, proved influential in the fields of the humanities, especially in literary theory and in literary criticism. Orientalism proved especially influential upon the field of Middle Eastern studies, wherein it transformed the academic discourse of the field's practitioners, of how they examine, describe, and define the cultures of the Middle East. As a critic, he vigorously discussed and debated the cultural subjects comprised by Orientalism, especially as applied to and in the fields of history and area studies; nonetheless, some mainstream academics disagreed with Said's Orientalism thesis, most notably the Anglo-American Orientalist Bernard Lewis.
As a public intellectual, Said discussed contemporary politics and culture, literature and music in books, lectures, and articles. Drawing from his family experiences as Palestinian Christians in the Middle East at the time of the establishment of Israel in 1948, Said argued for the establishment of a Palestinian state, for equal political and human rights for the Palestinians in Israel—including the right of return—and for increased U.S. political pressure upon Israel to recognize, grant, and respect said rights. Moreover, he also criticized the political and cultural politics of the Arab and Muslim regimes who acted against the interests of their peoples. Intellectually active until the last months of his life, he died of leukemia in late 2003.
Edward Said was born on 1 November 1935, to Hilda Said and her husband, the businessman Wadie Said, in the city of Jerusalem in the British Mandate of Palestine (1920--48).[10] Edward's father was a Palestinian man who soldiered in the U.S. Army component of the Allied Expeditionary Force (1917--19), commanded by General John J. Pershing, in World War I; Wadie Said and his family were granted U.S. citizenship due to his military service, and after acquiring citizenship Wadie Said moved to Cleveland before returning to Palestine in 1920. His mother Hilda, who was born in Nazareth, had a Palestinian father and a Lebanese mother. After the war, in 1919, Wadie Said moved to Cairo and established a stationery business with a cousin. Although his parents practiced the Jerusalemite variety of Greek Orthodox Christianity, Edward was agnostic. He had four younger sisters.
Verso Books published Waiting for the Barbarians: A Tribute to Edward W. Said (2008), edited by Müge Gürsoy Sökmen and Bașak Ertür; the essayists include Akeel Bilgrami, Rashid Khalidi, and Elias Khoury. Routledge published Edward Said: The Charisma of Criticism (2010), by Harold Aram Veeser, a critical biography. The University of California Press published Edward Said: A Legacy of Emancipation and Representations (2010), edited by Adel Iskandar and Hakem Rustom, and featuring contributions about Said's intellectual legacy by Joseph Massad, Ilan Pappe, Ella Shohat, Ghada Karmi, Noam Chomsky, Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, and Daniel Barenboim, among others.
Academic establishments such as Columbia University, the University of Warwick, Princeton University, the University of Adelaide, the American University of Cairo, and the Palestine Center have instituted annual series of lectures about the subjects, topics, and themes that Edward Said discussed in his works; notable among the speakers have been Daniel Barenboim, Noam Chomsky, Robert Fisk, and Cornel West.

The Alex Jones Show - Thursday, December 19, 2013 (Full Show): Paul Jenkins, Glenn Jacobs
On this Thursday, December 19 edition of the Alex Jones Show, Alex

studio to discuss the Glenn Greenwald book deal controversy and the
journalist's partnership with Paypal.
The Real Reasons For America's Decline
We discuss an article by noted Washington Post socialist columnist Harvey Mayerson about the decline of America and the American Worker. His reasons include the decline of unionism, globalisation, financialisation and Jack Welch. Our reasons, debasement of the currency, abandonment of the gold standard, debasement of morality and socialism. And then of course there's the continuing implosion of Obamacare and the fact that for every person who's signed up for Obamacare, there's 13 people who have had their health insurance cancelled. That's a real success. Cell phone carriers are cashing in on snooping and Harvard bans single use water bottles and the fraud of recycling.

Conspiracy Theory : The Abraham Lincoln Assassination
The leading alternative to the theory that John Wilkes Booth and a few
others conspired to murder Abraham Lincoln, Andrew Johnson and William
Seward is a Confederate conspiracy. The details, motivation and evidence
for such a conspiracy are presented along with the evidence that
challenges the theory.
The Lincoln Conspiracy, a book published in 1977, contended there was a government plot to conceal Booth's escape, reviving interest in the story and prompting the display of St. Helen's mummified body in Chicago that year. The book sold more than one million copies and was made into a feature film called The Lincoln Conspiracy, which was theatrically released in 1977. A 1998 book, The Curse of Cain: The Untold Story of John Wilkes Booth, contended that Booth had escaped, sought refuge in Japan and eventually returned to the United States. In 1994 two historians, together with several descendants, sought a court order for the exhumation of Booth's body at Green Mount Cemetery, which was, according to their lawyer, "intended to prove or disprove longstanding theories on Booth's escape" by conducting a photo-superimposition analysis. The application was blocked, however, by Baltimore Circuit Court Judge Joseph H. H. Kaplan, who cited, among other things, "the unreliability of petitioners' less-than-convincing escape/cover-up theory" as a major factor in his decision. The Maryland Court of Special Appeals upheld the ruling. No gravestone marks the precise location where Booth is buried in the family's gravesite. Author Francis Wilson, 11 years old at the time of Lincoln's assassination, wrote an epitaph of Booth in his 1929 book John Wilkes Booth: "In the terrible deed he committed, he was actuated by no thought of monetary gain, but by a self-sacrificing, albeit wholly fanatical devotion to a cause he thought supreme."
In December 2010, descendants of Edwin Booth reported that they obtained permission to exhume the Shakespearean actor's body to obtain DNA samples. However, Bree Harvey, a spokesperson from the Mount Auburn Cemetery in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where Edwin Booth is buried, refuted reports that the family had contacted them and requested to exhume Edwin's body. The family hopes to obtain DNA samples from artifacts belonging to John Wilkes, or from remains such as vertebrae stored at the National Museum of Health and Medicine in Maryland. On March 30, 2013, museum spokesperson Carol Johnson announced the family's request to exhume DNA from the vertebrae had been rejected.
