Join or die is a film about why you should join a club!
In the dumpster fire times that we’re living in, it’s more important than ever to create strong community bonds!
Joining a club is not only FUN, but it turns out it’s an important piece of the fabric of society! The purpose of this gathering is to watch the film + to introduce you to 5+ Atlanta-based clubs/organizations that you can join.
Join or Die is a film about why you should join a club — and why the fate of America depends on it. In this feature documentary, follow the half-century story of America's civic unraveling through the journey of legendary social scientist Robert Putnam, whose groundbreaking "Bowling Alone" research into America's decades-long decline in community connections could hold the answers to our democracy's present crisis. Flanked by influential fans and scholars — from Hillary Clinton, Pete Buttigieg, and Surgeon General Vivek Murthy to Eddie Glaude Jr., Raj Chetty, and Priya Parker — as well as inspiring groups building community in neighborhoods across the country, join Bob as he explores three urgent civic questions: What makes democracy work? Why is American democracy in crisis? And, most importantly… What can we do about it?
