you know we have little west african which is senegalese, and sort of west african community, but that links back to southern food right? that's how we got our grits. that's how we got our rice, and that's how we got our okra right? so the music and the food and the people are always going to be linked back to west africa, and southern food and soul food will always be diverse because the settler could come from different places, the cook can come from one part of west africa, maybe married a native, and you have the latin influences too, so it's a very very diverse stew that is ours. it's american, it's not just black cooking. it's of african american culture, but it's american. - and the restaurant reflects back the diversity of the community. as i said you have 11 restaurants. you have a handful in new york, you have a handful in sweden where you grew up. you were born in ethiopia, but grew up in sweden. you have one in chicago, you have one in bermuda. but they're all very different restaurants right? you're not only cooking or in or presiding over restaurants in one style. which o

also joined upon a very strong, iconic form in west african art and architecture. of the structure that you see to the far right. so when used study -- we studied these particular elements, we married them to include these west african sensibilities. with notions of iron craftsman. the craftsmanship in the south from areas such as new orleans and charleston, creating these intricate, wonderful iron sculptures. and that evolved into what you see today and what you experience at the national museum of african american history and culture. the place where you actually experience the filigree of the sun and the dabbling of -- dappling of light and shadow from the interior. also from the exterior -- i wonder why there is that delay. here we go. also, from the exterior, you look at that facade. and sometimes, you experience it sort of shiny facade. but sometimes it has a dark , presence. that again is these notions of a strong, powerful idea coming together. next is a current project that we are proudly working on. i think you guys just saw a preview of it a second ago.
