Van Jones, Force of Nature

January 28, 2008

Van Jones and I served as advisors to Witness.org for a few years starting around 2000. Since then we keep running into each other at human rights events, Social Venture Network, and, well, just randomly. He's an inspiring person, just hitting his stride, and is now the focus of a lot of national press.

He spoke just after I did at the Craigslist Foundation Boot Camp 18 months ago. I just listened to his speech again, and I remember how inspired I was to hear him. Blew me off the stage, no doubt.
