The award-winning documentary Join or Die follows the story of social scientist Robert Putnam (Bowling Alone) and explores one of the most vital questions of our time: What makes democracy work? Through powerful storytelling and interviews with leaders such as Pete Buttigieg, Priya Parker, Vivek Murthy, and grassroots organizers across the country, the film makes a compelling case for civic engagement and the importance of local organizations in building stronger, more resilient communities.
Following the screening, with a sneak peek before it begins, join us in the Edgemont High School Cafeteria for our first-ever Community Joining Fair, where residents can meet representatives from more than 25 local organizations and discover new ways to “join in” and get involved.
