DESCRIPTION:\n\nThe Contract to Rebuild the American Dream\nFacilitated by Van 
 Jones\n\nVan Jones, founder of Rebuild the Dream, will host this special 
 anchor teach-in on the American and global economy.  Since Ronald Reagan 
 became president 30 years ago, the accumulated wealth of the top-fraction 
 of the one percent of rich Americans has skyrocketed upward, while the 
 economic prospects of the 99 percent have stagnated or plummeted.  During 
 the current economic crisis, this disparity has grown larger.  As profits 
 among the giant corporations increase to yet higher levels, so have the 
 rates of foreclosure, long-term unemployment, and childhood poverty.  
 Still, politicians of both parties pass legislation forcing the poor to 
 suffer austerity in the name of balancing the budget.  Only with deep 
 knowledge and dialog will we be able to change the terms of the economic 
 debate from one of austerity for the 99 percent to one of sustainable 
 growth, a healthier planet, and a just economy.  This evening’s special 
 program featuring Van Jones comes to us from MoveOn and the Wellstone 
 Democratic Renewal Club.\n\nWheelchair accessible around the corner at  411 
  28th  Street\n\n \n
