Van Jones merited a collective “oh word?” from the culture when it was announced the CNN analyst signed a management deal with Roc Nation. Now Jones is taking his activism on the road with the “We Rise” tour.
In collaboration with Roc Nation and powered by Jones’ love army–which is a collective of people who have moved past their own frustration to band together in hopes of achieving equality–the nationwide tour will feature entertainers, athletes, community leaders and those on the front lines of resistance. Jones will reportedly also visit community centers as he travels across the country.
