HUDSON RIVER - NIGHT SUPER: NEW YORK, NEW YORK. AUGUST 14th, 1944. Underwater. Shafts of light cut through the river. Slowly, DAVID KAMMERER, 33, bearded, handsome, rises into view. He is clothed -- open white shirt, khakis. Face down. Dead. ALLEN (V.O.) Some things, once you’ve loved them, become yours forever. The body breaks to the surface. Then FLIPS, David's face turning to the sky. The scene is playing in REVERSE MOTION. ALLEN (V.O.) And if you try to let them go... The body floats back to LUCIEN CARR, 20, unclothed, waist deep in the water. Drops of sweat, blood, down his back. ALLEN (V.O.) ...they only circle back and return to you. As David’s body LIFTS into the young man's arms, we see David's feet and hands are TIED together with shoelaces. The shoelaces suddenly untie. ALLEN (V.O.) They become part of who you are...

    1 My Path to Greatness Part One: In the Long Ago Long before I came to any knowledge of Jane Thayer or fully embraced that I wasn’t among the brightest stars in the firmament and before my parents and two of my sisters made themselves invisible on the earth, there is my childhood room overlooking Broadway, along which the cars and trucks and buses of the city are given the right of way to race along, not as they please but within the guidelines of the traffic lights installed to impose a kind of order, a sorrow suffusing me that the trolleys cannot be there too in the time that I have come into but had to be retired in the relentless current of change the world has not found a way to resist. Before the bad people came we lived in a palace bigger than any ocean, with rooms that sparkled. Jewels hung from our necks and gold lace shone in our hair and the radiance of springtime was always in our lives and frankincense and myrrh were at our disposal. In chariots we rode and slept in bowers of bliss and drank the milk and honey of the land. “Don’t exaggerate, my son. But yes, how beautiful it was,” Momma says, while braiding her long brown hair by the full-length mirror in the vestibule. “Why did the bad people come?” I ask. “Because there is iniquity in this world. There always has been and always will be, until Jesus returns, like a thief in the night,” Momma says.

SI: Ms. Null, thank you very much for having us here today. Miriam Null: Well, you’re very welcome. Fire away. SI: To begin, could you state for the record where and when you were born? MN: I was born in Brooklyn, New York on February 12, 1926. SI: Can you tell me a little bit about your family history beginning with your father’s side of the family? MN: My father, David P. Berenberg, was a teacher. He was the principal of Franklin School for Boys and from the late ‘20s until his retirement, which I believe was around 1950, he was a student of German, and history, and … also Latin. … He was a firm believer that Latin was the foundation of all languages so he insisted that I study Latin. Somehow, my sister managed to escape [studying Latin], my older sister. He was born in the United States, in [Elmira], New York State, I believe. His family came from Europe. I think … both his father and his mother had come from either East Germany or Poland; it’s very uncertain. My grandmother insisted that she was an East Prussian but we all doubted that very much.

During that time I had made an entirely new life in Albu- Fquerque, New Mexico, as a teacher, father of two, inter- mittent husband, and perennial community activist. But in a short few months, two seemingly unrelated events came together to make me change my mind and begin speaking in public about my role in Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) and the Weather Underground—things that happened to me when I was a kid. First, in March 2003, the United States attacked Iraq, beginning a bloody, long, and futile war of conquest. What I saw, despite some significant differences, was Vietnam all over again.
