After decades organizing from within the labor establishment, Joe Uehlein realized that winning real climate and economic justice meant moving beyond the limits of traditional labor and environmentalism.
As former secretary-treasurer of the AFL-CIO's Industrial Division and director of the AFL-CIO'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.
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.
Three Roads weaves strategy, memoir, and music into a powerful call to action. Through compelling personal narrative and frontline insight, Joe offers an urgently needed blueprint for bridging movements and pushing boundaries. This is a book for anyone who dreams of a world where working people and the planet thrive together.
Because the road to justice has to walk in more than one direction--and we need all of them.
