Free Forum Q&A - VAN JONES Author, THE GREEN COLLAR ECONOMY and REBUILD THE DREAM

Originally Aired September 2011"It is the American Dream that the GOP's "slash and burn" agenda is killing off. We need a movement dedicated to renewing the idea that hard work pays in our country; that you can make it if you try; that America remains a land committed to dignity, justice and opportunity for all. Right now, this very idea is on the GOP chopping block. And we must rescue it now -- or risk losing it forever."Van Jones - Rebuild the DreamVAN JONES, a CNN political contributor, is Co-Founder and President of REBUILD THE DREAM, and a co-founder of three other successful non-profit organizations: the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights, Color of Change and Green For All.
