we managed to come back to palestine. palestine was a british colony. remember this was world war ii. we went to tel aviv. bill: and this is october 1940. italianand german and bombers would bomb the city where they had oil refineries. foras a concentration place british troops. the cause it was so far for them to fly, many of the planes could city, so bombs on that they would unload them on tel aviv. i remember the house we lived in. every night we had to go down to the shelter because of the air raids. -- after it while, i didn't want to go down anymore, because i felt i would rather sleep. my parents could not take me down. fear.rt of lose this was a very good question -- 1/7 grader asked me -- one seventh grader asked me, when you were afraid they were bombing refugees? i thought about it. it's a very good question. students can only be afraid i felt for the instance when the fear happens. bombing. when you are bombed, you are afraid you will be killed. but once the planes left, you forget about it. the fear stays with adults with anxiety, but child

the situation in palestine is getting harder and harder politically.there are all kind of things that make it hard to construct in a practical way. there are first fights and brawls about which workers are going to work on the construction sites. will it be arabs? jews? among the jews will they by labor zionist? people are pounding on each other. there are curfews, strikes, and riots. you can see the curfew path limiting the amoupt of time you can be out. this per tains to everyone. this violence was making his life harder and harder as an architect. no matter what he believed in he had to get stuff done. what i want to do, we are still on the road, i have not forgotten and i want to take you down the street and explain in 1936, the arabs of palestine, seeing what was happening, the jews were not only having england promise a national home to the jewish people in 1917, but with hitler's rise, the ports were flooded with immigrants. a revolt broke out against the jews but really against the british who were responsible -- i am making this very simple to

through palestine, i got him to england. because he stopped along the way, i got him to cairo, that is the way he went. i began to see things about -- i got a friend in israel to go to the archives, to see who ended up in palestine with brandeis. low and behold there was them or. i found it. now i know why he became zionist. he thought palestine could be the new incarnation of pericles in athens. i was sure of it. i wrote the book anyway. we were both at a conference in england and we went to the library of oxford, went to the papers, saying you were my entry into zionism. i found it. >> both of us had to sign the pledge not to bring fire into the library. >> nor will i eat the fruits in the library. >> always confused about brandeis. there was no reason because he himself made it clear why he became a zionist. he said he became a zionist because of americanism. jacob was important introducing -- the really important person was horace meyer kaelin, who came up with the notion of pluralism in american society. he denied the i

louis brandeis idealized palestine from that trip he took.e writes home, letters to his wife, now i know why people have fought over this place it's wonderful, this that that and the other thing. if any of you read exodus when it came out or saw the movie and remember, that was the view of palestine that louis brandeis gave to american, this very idealized view which has been the source of both american support of israel as well as our angst when the state of israel doesn't behave the way we think it should. i agree completely that we don't know what he said about this that or the other thing but he believed jews should defend themselves. he was part of a money laundering scheme to those. [inaudible] i followed the money from louis brandeis until about four zionist offices. he was a money laundering. [laughter] >> our audience is concerned about a few other aspects of the legacy as well and i need to turn to the phenomenal questions that we have. there are at least three questions, one from a member of of our simulcast audience, one beautiful

the period of world war i, he claims he became a zionist in favor of jewish statehood in palestine as a result of reading theodore hertzle's book and made good on that commitment throughout his political career. when world war i broke out, he was working on a draft appeal board in new york city when he caught the attention of democratic party officials in the city. they asked him to run for congress, and he ran a door to door campaign. he was elected to the united states congress, 10th congressional district, which actually changed many times over his career. not surprisingly, given the family business, he ran on an anti-prohibition platform in a district heavily populated by immigrants. manny celler was in the house of representatives longer than almost anybody else in the history of the house. he started under president harding and was still in the house when president ford came to the white house. he was known for quick wit, for love of music, especially opera, and he would do parlor tricks for children. he also had a number of pithy sayings. for example, to be a successful congres

the excuse that his wife was in the memoir is that they landed in north africa and palestine was going to be invaded. i don't think that has much to do with it at all. he felt lonelier and limb here and were dismayed by what he saw taking hold in the country. they were not close friends but they were kindred spirits. he writes to him that it's greatly affected me. it also leads for the same reason and around this time mendelson writes i'm lost in a world of lost itself. he also -- there is a way that he felt this place had acknowledged its own gift and what it could give the country. if he would just make up his mind there is no place for the pre- madonna. so they pack their bags and set sail again. i don't have time to go into all of that. but it didn't spit out their buildings and this to me is a critical thing. these buildings went up in the late 30s were in a kind of conversation with each other from the outset with the people that walk by. seems to me they are still in that conversation 75 years after. so time is moving on. we now have the bank and post office behind us and we are

in that song, i reference a village that i visited in palestine, bil'in, where, once again, i saw theort of raids that were happening. it's like, you know, 30 minutes outside of tel aviv, but the difference between lifestyle in bil'in versus tel aviv is like worlds apart. i reference detroit in that song and the housing issues there. yeah, it's a mélange of ideas, that song. amy goodman: talk about "think like they book say." saul williams: ok. "think like they book say" is a really fun song that chronicles the meeting of these two protagonists in the story martyrloserking, martyr loser king and neptune frost. neptune frost is a refugee from uganda. it's someone who was raised as a boy, born with both sexes, internally identifies as female, and, when she leaves uganda, finds the courage. like, she runs away in order to find the courage to be herself. and she lands in martyr loser kingdom, where she's accepted and ends up playing an enormous role in the story. and so, yeah, "think like they book say" is about the meeting between those two characters. it also gives a bit away about who

and even after the war, getting refugees to palestine was considered more important than bringing them here. where that became a problem was in the '80s, when a soviet jewery movement begins here in the united states, and the american jewish community found itself in direct defiance of the wishes of the israeli government that wanted the russians to go there, and the american jewish community argued freedom of choice on immigration. of course, once the russian jews arrive here in large numbers, they really don't want a lot to do with them. and i'll just end with an anecdote. i had mentioned to my own synagogue board, maybe we should have an outreach program to russian jews in northeast philadelphia. and one member said out loud, why do we need to do that? i already have somebody to do my nails. all right.
