Channel: SOCAP Global
Date: 2013-09-06

“We’ve known each other for a long time. You never heard me talk this way before. There’s a reason for it,” Van Jones says addressing the SOCAP audience. “You don’t expect me to talk about racial stuff. I usually talk about some green stuff to make you happy. I’m not doing that speech. Stay with me…” 
Van Jones talks about race and racism in America, his own family history, talking to his kids about race; politics, coding, achieving “the dream,” and so much more in a riveting conversation with Jeff Leifer of Circadian Media Lab, live from the SOCAP stage. Van Jones is a CNN political contributor, regularly appearing across the network’s programming and special political coverage. Jones has founded and led numerous social enterprises engaged in social and environmental justice.
