The Green Collar Economy of Van Jones

It was a proud day for all of us in this movement to see Van’s new book reach #12 on the New York Times best sellers list last week. Van is a local hero who’s ideas are rapidly gaining national attention. Founder of the Ella Baker Center and Green For All, Van is taking on urban issues with pragmatict policies and a rethinking of paradigms. I once was able to share with him how he had changed my consciouness in connecting the dots for me in showing the integral nature of social justice and environmental issues. I hope and believe he will be doing the same for the rest country in the cabinet for our new President.
