Van Jones is a CNN political contributor, NY Times best-selling author & worked in the White House as an advisor to President Obama. He’s known for being the voice of reason for both red & blue states during the 2016 election.

In this episode, we revisit Amy Jo and Van’s conversation in which Van talks about why he believes America is so divided & what we can do to begin bridging the divide. Van has a strong ability to serve as a bridge for opposing opinions. We need a lot more of that in this world.
