"BlueGreen Alliance" What is it and why do we need it?
Details
Created 20 years ago via a national partnership between the Sierra Club and the United Steelworkers union, the BlueGreen Alliance now has 15 national member organizations and a staff in the Southeast (me!). Come learn about what we do, why we do it and how. It is more important than ever for environmental and worker organizations to find ways to work together against common foes instead of against each other in ways that divide our movements.
