About Join Or Die
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?
Following the screening and a Q&A with the filmmakers Pete Davis & Rebecca Davis, DVAA and Tusten Social will host a special pop-up fair where attendees will get to discover local organizations to get involved with.
***This event is made possible in part with generous support from the Wayne County Community Foundation.***
