In this speech, activist Van Jones debunks myths driving US policy and inhibiting change and progress. He takes climate change deniers to task, revealing that scientists who previously made millions trying to convince the public that global warming is a hoax, are now abandoning that theory. But is it too late to reverse the clock?

Jones also questions the promise of America. Not so long ago, our country offered a simple path to a better life: get an education, find a job, and buy a home. We believed that anyone who was willing to work hard and play by the rules could get ahead. It was an idea that the world called "The American Dream."

In this Link TV special, activist Van Jones examines what's gone wrong in recent decades. The rules we play by favor the powerful few, while the rest fall further and further behind. Now, those who don't want to pay decent wages or fair taxes are trying to convince America that our country is too broke to rebuild that dream. Van Jones claims that's a shameful lie. Find out why in Van Jones: Rebuild the Dream.
