so we know that john brown's daughter was married in 1788. and what we have here in our collection shows the connection between museums and collections. this is the earliest collection of country dances and the chileans. it is a wonderful account. the newest and most portable. the pleasure of providence. all of these wonderful dances that we know and can imagine the men and women of providence in 1788. some of the luminaries and great thinkers show the cultural history and how we can find out more about everyday people and how they would have been in word and dance and film in the 20th century. and i think this is a wonderful example of early history. the next piece that we have harkens back to bed. rhode island actually has the first in a god. located in newport. and becomes significant throughout the economy and political life. what we have here is a jewish calendar in north america. it shows the festival days and the days of significance for decades. one of the beautiful things is that there is information about it in hebrew and now we hav

it is rumored but never proven that she actually funded john brown's raid on the harpers ferry. she was a--tremendous employer out in the san francisco area. and this was when san francisco was a very dangerous town. she funded runaway slaves. she actually--some of the early landmark civil rights cases in california she funded. and then--and near the end of her life, things became even more bizarre. she was sort of connected to a very wealthy senator from--state senator from california and was taken to court and so it just becomes, you know, this saga. but as a figure, i mean, she's just inspirational and just formidable. c-span: $30, 643 pages for your book. where did you write it? >> guest: wrote it all over the world. i actually--you know, i was in north carolina after i did the initial traveling, i did some there. i went to new york where i had been living for 13 years. c-span: what were you doing in new york? >> guest: well, i taught at columbia and sarah lawrence college. i was for a year at the university--i'm sorry--at the american academy in rome, the rome prize. so tha

john brown joins us. senior economic consultant at euro pacific. have we turned the corner a little bit? >> i think there is reason for some optimism. i think strategically the economy is still in very bad shape. tactically, consumers are beginning to spend. that is a good thing. things are getting better. therefore people are spending. government has to take reality down the road. it has borrowed against the credit of the young and the future. meanwhile, consumers have deleveraged. they have saved a considerable amount of cash despite low interest rates. now, they are frustrated about a recession. they have negative interest rates and attempted to buy a new car. the attempted with new families to buy new housing. things are picking up, in that respect. that is good. connell: first of all, and the jobless claims, some of this may be seasonal. we may pay for this, so to speak. on your point about consumer spending, i wonder why people are more confident and they are not thinking about the issues and washington. do people just not care about that? ce

let's get reaction from john brown, former pfizer to british prime minister now with euro pacific capital what do you think? is willing to just go back and lift it back off once it is approved? >> it takes a lot to do that. they may reduce the rate of tax but extend the time in which the tax was taken. exceptionalism to be hitting to subsidize the failure. so you run out of other people's money. france is a ticking timebomb of europe. as the economy goes and has a huge item, it is too big to bailout for europe. that is how things will expel and threaten the end of the euro and the european union. dennis: some of these socialists got them to make the tax temporary, do you have faith they will later take the tax away? when they start collecting money, they don't give it up. >> exactly. it takes a lot of courage. the top rate of tax was 98% and then down to 40% unleashing a huge growth in economy and in tax revenues, but she had the courage that not many people have and when the tax rates were up in the '90s you had a huge exodus from england to america, they went to lake monte carlo, bermud

things that i watch, one of the things that has stuck with me since writing the book is that john lackey and brown men, young boys, they're not educated. they're not accepted in the educational system. part is cultural, party societal. but the dinosaur had the ice age and we have the education and technology age. in the dinosaur didn't make the adjustment is not hearing more. the black and brown male won't be here. the job we used to do, we can't do anymore. not the manufacturing base a lot. we have to make it safe for our children to be smart, to be respect so, to the individual because when i was a boy, i wanted to be accepted so bad i lowered myself so i could see eye to eye. i will never allow that to happen again. i think when you look around you, if i can change the people around me, you have to be unafraid to be by yourself. sometimes sitting by yourself is the clearest you'll ever be. i think there is such a tendency to want to be accepted so bad, was wack, with school, what he said. do we love ourselves. people of all kind of information, but i saw men -- many of the city would do anythin

the president named john brown and his -- as national security adviser and we talked about this morning. host: we are back with former congresswoman jane harmon. let's begin with the pick of john brennan. why do you think the president chose him? what does this job entail? guest: he has been in the catbird seat for four years. he was going to be the pick four years ago and his name was withdrawn at the last minute. as the guy in the white house, he managed our counter- terrorism program. he worked well with president obama. he is the guy obama trust most and this is a sensitive post at a very sensitive time. i think it is an extremely good appointment. host: what does the job entailed? guest: the director of the cia is different than what was before 2004. in 2004, four of us in congress, led the fight for intelligent reform and we've restructured our intelligence committee after the bad intelligence on iraq to have a joint commander. person is called the director of national intelligence. the current one is james clapper, a former three-star military man from the pentagon. under him are

that brown won't end up running to replace john kerry and has a different comeback in mind. own was last seen losing to elizabeth warren by eight points. but remaining quite popular. warren believe it or not is less popular. her favorable score in the same poll came in at 54% to 37%. this speaks to the central reason brown lost. massachusetts voters do not like the national republican party. they have not elected a republican to the house since 1994 making massachusetts the biggest state in the country with an all democratic delegation. and they've only elected one republican to the senate in 40 years. brown back in that 2010 special election to fill ted kennedy's seat. or, you know, the people's seat. brown was able to win in '10 in part because turnout was really low and popular frustration with obama and the ruling democrats was really, really high. so republicans, the few there are in massachusetts, flocked to the polls and so did independents angry at obama. they weren't as excited at the self-destructive candidate. and there's your five point scott brown win. then look
