Film Discussion – Join or Die – In Person

Watch a movie on your own, then attend a discussion of it made richer by the wide variety of viewpoints that participants hold.

We choose films that address social, political or cultural issues that are relevant to society today. They may highlight liberal-leaning, conservative-leaning or independent themes, or feature actors or directors from opposite sides of the political spectrum.

We’ll be discussing the film Join or Die.

Join or Die is a film about why you should join a club—and why the fate of America
depends on it. Follow the story of America’s civic unraveling through the journey of
Robert Putnam, whose legendary “Bowling Alone” research into American community
decline may hold the answers to our democracy’s present crisis.

Thanks to the Cedar Tree Foundation and Delevan Street Films for making this free showing possible.
