This episode might deserve a warning label: “SHOCKING TRUTHS—SERVED EXCEEDINGLY HOT.” Van is joined this week by Charlamagne Tha God and Tezlyn Figaro, two influential voices in media and in the Black community. His guests expose a white-hot level of frustration in the Black community—one that could upend the next two elections. Democrats hold the White House and Congress, but the party’s slow legislative progress has left many of its base voters— especially Black voters— exceedingly frustrated. These guests pull no punches as they lay out exactly where the Democrats are falling short and what they need to do to deliver for their constituents. Trying to bridge divides AMONG progressives, Van, Charlamagne, and Tezlyn have an honest, bold, thought-provoking conversation you won’t hear anywhere else.
New episodes of Uncommon Ground with Van Jones release weekly, every Wednesday.
What assumptions are you challenging? What do you wish officials knew about your own community? Call 347-770-2785 and leave Van a voicemail. Your comment or question will be recorded, and may be played and answered on a future episode of Uncommon Ground!
