As former secretary-treasurer of the AFL-CIO’s Industrial Division and director of the AFL-CIO&#39;s Center for Strategic Campaigns, Joe fought from the inside. But in 2005, he stepped away from the AFL-CIO to found the Labor Network for Sustainability, forging deep alliances between labor, climate, and environmental movements. His vision: transform the labor movement to embrace ecological responsibility—and environmentalism to uplift working-class solidarity.</p><p>But Joe’s work has never been confined to boardrooms or picket lines. With a guitar in hand, he’s shared stages with Pete Seeger and Tom Morello, turning songs into rallying cries and stories into tools for resistance.</p><p><br></p><p>In our latest, we&#39;re excited to talk with legendary labor and climate organizer Joe Uehlein (@joeuehlein) about his new memoir that details his life&#39;s work of labor organizing, climate organizing and music. Guest bio//</p><p>Joe Uehlein is a labor organizer, musician, and climate activist. He is the founder of the Labor Network for Sustainability and author of the recent memoir, &quot;Three Roads Labor, Music, Ecology.&quot; </p><p>------------------</p><p>Outro// &quot;You Can&#39;t Giddyup By Saying Whoa&quot; by Joe Uehlein</p><p><br></p><p>🔗 Links</p><p>🌐 Joe&#39;s Website: https://joeuehlein.com/</p><p>🔖 Three Roads: Labor, Music, Ecology (https://bit.ly/3Ui2cYt)</p><p><br></p><p>💚 Support the Green and Red Podcast</p><p>🎉 Become a Patron: https://www.patreon.com/greenredpodcast</p><p>☕ One-time donation: https://bit.ly/DonateGandR</p><p><br></p><p>🎙️ Follow Green and Red</p><p>🔗 Linktree: https://linktr.ee/greenandredpodcast</p><p>🌐 Website: https://greenandredpodcast.org</p><p><br></p><p>🌍 Our Networks</p><p>🎧 Labor Podcast Network: https://www.laborradionetwork.org</p><p>📢 Anti-Capitalist Podcast Network: https://linktr.ee/anticapitalistpodcastnetwork</p><p>📻 Listen on WAMF (90.3 FM) New Orleans: https://wamf.org</p><p>✊ Worker Power Radio: https://workerpowerradio.ismyradio.com/</p><p>🎬 A Green and Red Podcast production</p><p>👨‍🏫 Produced by Bob (@bobbuzzanco) and Scott (@sparki1969)</p><p>✂️ Edited by Scott</p><p>🔔 Subscribe for more analysis on U.S. politics, leftist strategy, and anti-establishment resistance.</p><p><br></p>
