Van Jones, the Obama administration’s first green energy czar, best-selling author, Princeton fellow, and founder of a new national organizing campaign for economic justice, Rebuild the Dream. Jones will be speaking on the dizzying accumulation of student loan debt in the United States (now $1 trillion and counting) and the unsustainable burden it places on students and the economy, while also proposing bottom-up solutions to the problem.
