Van Jones, one of the nation’s forerunners for ecological equality, is switching gears. A cofounder of three non –profits and a former advisor to President Obama, Jones is now working to build a movement grounded in tough-minded American idealism to take back the “American Dream”. Rejecting the fashionable mantra cut-backs and austerity, Jones makes the case for public policies and investments hoping to create 10 million, good-paying American jobs. Find out more about Jones’ new book Rebuild the Dream and get a glimpse of how his plot for change has thickened since last summer’s interview.
