Rev. Lennox Yearwood Jr. is the host of The Coolest Show. He is also the President & CEO of Hip Hop Caucus, a minister, community activist, U.S. Air Force veteran, and one of the most influential people in hip hop political life. As a national leader and pacemaker within the climate movement, Rev Yearwood challenges the establishment, media, and policymakers to reimagine climate solutions as racial justice. He uplifts people of color who have dedicated their lives to climate and environmental justice. And, he stands up for communities who are on the frontlines of the climate crisis, having been arrested more times than he can count as an activist in the streets. He hosts The Coolest Show so the smartest, most dedicated, and passionate leaders, who he admires, can have a platform to share their stories and truths.
