The colonizer and the colonized. It is amazing how the native can internalize the thought of the colonizer. I was just reading this news item in the Iraqi newspaper, Az-Zaman. It said that famed Egyptian belly dancer, Fifi `Abduh, received "the title of Best Eastern Dancer in the World in a ceremony that was held in the state [sic] of Dallas under the supervision of Mrs. Didi, the director of the most famous institute for dance in the US..." I mean, why would Fifi `Abduh, of all people, need the approval of Mrs. Didi? (p. 19 of the newspaper).
