i was very lucky in that, the brenners are a family of letter writers. everyone had a typewriter in the era before computers and bang away at typewriters in the middle of the night as children and my father and mother, long, long letters. anita brenner turned out to be the same kind of obsessive letter-writer pack right. all of her letters were in the university of texas, the great archives of the world. i was able to go on a traumatic day and see she had neatly kept hundreds of letters that my father and family wrote to each other in the 20s. i saw patterns, the anger that had gone on 60 years before i was on the planet that became stamped on us. it became our dna. >> anything that helped you get insight as to why so much of your brother's anger and passion into what you regarded as coo coo politics? >> that is an interesting question. it is hard. what i have learned is, i have written biographies, bingham family of louisville. we take a letter of a piece of evidence, there is a ah-huh, this anger daughter wrote a letter to her father. my grandfather wo

the next reader is summer brenner. . >> i'm going it read today an excerpt from anana, queen of heaven and earth. i wanted to say a few words about anana. this is the oldest literary work that we have. these are the cuniform tablets that were excavated in the late 1880's and early 1890's by the university of pennsylvania. tens of thousands of fragments of cuniform fragments. the story of anana starts in her adolescence. it travels through her journey as a queen and a goddess, and much of her story is devoted to the love, a very passionate love, for dimusi, who is a shepherd who she takes as her husband, lover and king. and this is called the return. a lament was raised in the city. my lady weeps bitterly for her young husband. anana weeps bitterly for her young husband. woe for her husband, woe for her young love, woe for her house, woe for her city. dimusi was taken captive in aruk. he will no longer bathe in aradu. he will no longer treat the mother of anana of his mother. he will no longer perform his sweet task among the maidens of the city. he will no longer raise his sword higher

brenner and cam den, new jersey. the most interesting place to do health care research in this country is in the poorest cities because nobody cares. and so you have dr. brener in camden, new jersey who realized, what percentage of all the health care costs in camden, new jersey, are being created by what percentage of the people? 1% of the people in camden, new jersey, account for 30% of the health care spending mostly because they're not taking their diabetes medicine and not going tore a walk around the block. so he sets up a preventative team and they reduce their costs by 50% and the overall health care costs in camden collapse. it's that intelligent discreet decision making on how not how much that is determining our future as a people and as a country. and it's a decision we have to make to seize nobility again not through the grandiose aspirations of mythology but the realistic assessment of our own best interests. >> dylan rad began, "greedy bastards." thank you for coming in. >> thank you. i'm sorry to carr

jeffrey brenner in camden, new jersey.academy in san francisco and mayo clinic in minnesota. there's plenty of sun for these cradles which is the attention of a market place ready to foster growth. this river and its vital flow of capital is being held back by three major barriers. man made levies of bank, tax, and trade policy auctioned off by our bought election system. we and our greedy bastards behavior are creating these gates. in the process we're holding back the flow of capital by incentivizing credit speculation, job out sourcing, and corrupt pricing of almost every major u.s. service. we auction tax benefits and subsidies through the money in the political system to ensure that. but we can fix this. we can remove those barriers and let the flow of capital irrigate the desert cradles. it's not a mirage. by using our values of shared visibility, integrity, and choice we can achieve aligned interests and demand real, capris he comprehensive trade and tax reform and we'll unleash these cradles of innovation and yield

james sensen brenner and congresswoman sue sheila jackson-lee introduced the no fear act.d of the most courageous individuals in the federal government. for two long years, we marched, we faxed, we wore out shoes on capitol hill, we talked to anyone who would stand still for two minutes to listen to what was going on in the federal government. actually, the first vote for this bill was actually scheduled for september 11th, 2001. so we were on the steps of the capitol when the security officers screamed from the top of the stairs, run for your life. and after that, of course, we saw the smoke billowing from the pentagon. after 9/11 we regrouped and continued to fight both to reschedule on the house and the senate side, and we prevailed. and we prevailed, and we triumphed. we passed the first civil rights and whistleblower law of the 21st century through a unanimous vote in both chambers of congress. what we accomplished in the no fear coalition is an example of what people can do when they determine how powerful they are. we knew that left to congress or the president we w
