CNN Political Commentator Van Jones has ventured across the U.S., from Gettysburg to the Coastal Regions, to bridge deep political divides between the "left" and "right"—a divide he largely attributes to social media in the age of Trump. He joins us to talk about his latest book "Beyond The Messy Truth," as well as how we can move beyond social media echo chambers and divisive memes towards progress.

Be sure to check out "Beyond The Messy Truth." It is a necessary book to read in the New Year as we all look for ways to build a more progressive society.
