Van Jones: Another Brother Outsider?

After Audre Lorde's Sister Outsider, but also Bayard Rustin, THE Brother Outsider, how far is too far for the moral conservatives of each era? Are we risking justice for the sake of pleasing pundits by keeping the good gals and guys out, labeling them radical- like Adam Clayton Powell threatened to do, and successfully pushed Bro Bayard to the back, but still he kept on. Glad to see that Van is keeping on keeping on, despite being 'outed' as a critical thinker about justice, which naturally includes jobs that keep humanity in balance with the ecology. heck, even rich people deserve to work for the good of people and the planet- it isn't that every industrialist is at ease with externalization.
