How to Make the Green Movement Less White

Van Jones, the head of the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights, and one of the most powerful speakers I know, has a wonderful article on how to get more diversity into the environmental movement..

Unfortunately, the vital process of change along more eco-friendly lines is moving ahead with practically zero participation from people of color."
