From Bowling Alone to Join or Die: How Clubs Can Strengthen Community and Democracy
Description
"This is a film about why you should join a club." So begins the documentary Join or Die, available to stream on Netflix, that follows the work of sociologist Robert Putnam, who famously argued that American civic organizations and engagement were in serious and steady decline and that this would not bode well for the nation. The documentary's co-directors and co-producers (and siblings), Rebecca and Pete Davis, join the O'Connor Institute to discuss their film and why joining a club may be the best way for individuals to improve their communities and country.
