The lecture was one in a series leading up to the 25th annual Camden Conference “The US in a 21st Century World: Do we have what it takes?” which will run February 17 through February 19.  

The Coastal Journal reported that Majid praised America’s strengths and commented on the underlying complications facing U.S. and Middle East relations.  

Majid talked about the decline of the American economy and what he thinks lies behind it, later remarking on a popular sentiment, that America is no longer what it used to be. “The question is, if America were to really decline,” he said, “What would happen to the world we see?”

Majid is the author of four critically acclaimed books on Islam and the West, including We Are All Moors: Ending Centuries of Crusades against Muslims and Other Minorities. His latest book ,Islam and America: Building a Future without Prejudice, is scheduled for release later this month.
