Van Jones is a TV host, author, attorney, and change maker known for his bridge-building approach to politics ... and his tireless fight for social justice. He’s the host of The Van Jones Show and The Redemption Project on CNN, as well as a frequent CNN political contributor. He’s been fighting for criminal and environmental justice for more than a quarter century. He’s launched or helped launch a huge number of nonprofits and initiatives, including Color of Change, Green for All, Dream Corps, Rebuild the Dream, REFORM Alliance, and the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights. He’s also the co-founder of Magic Labs Media, the production company behind “The Messy Truth,” a web series about the divides exposed by the 2016 presidential election. And Jones is the author of three bestselling books, including, most recently, Beyond the Messy Truth: How We Came Apart, How We Come Together, a deep dive on how the country can learn and heal from 2016. Over the past year, he has helped put a major spotlight on the need to reform American policing; helped pass legislation to transform probation and parole laws in California, Louisiana, and Michigan; and won an Emmy Award for “The Messy Truth VR Experience.” And the list goes on.
