About the Show
As a commentator, Van Jones hears opinions from across the political spectrum. As a changemaker, he seeks to build uncommon coalitions for the common good. In Uncommon Ground, Van Jones and his guests explore topics that affect us all — from climate change, to prison reform, to voting rights — and offer their takes on how to make change.
Awards & Recognition
“My whole life has been so much about me. And I’m at a place in my life where I don’t care for that, the way that I used to. Now it’s time to help other people. We shouldn’t stop fighting for people that no one wants to fight for.” Van sits down with one of his closest allies in the fight for criminal justice reform: Kim Kardashian. Kim gives a behind-the-scenes look at how she pursues justice for those behind bars, how her approach to criminal justice reform has evolved, and how a hypothetical “President Kardashian” would revolutionize the system. Kim also shares her perspective on entrepreneurship, beauty standards, and motherhood.
