A film about why you should join a club—and why the fate of America may depend on it. Follow the story of America’s civic unraveling through the work of Robert Putnam, whose legendary Bowling Alone findings light a path out of our democracy’s crisis.

From our Partner: “In celebration of the Federation of Community Councils’ 50th Anniversary, we invite you to join us for a screening of ‘Join or Die’.This film tackles important questions about the American democracy crisis and how we can be part of the solution. Community councils are a key part of Anchorage’s civic lifeblood, composed entirely by nonprofit, voluntary, self-governing associations. Each council joins residents, property owners, business owners, and nonprofit together to ensure direct and continuous public participation in the government processand local affairs. Everyday Anchorage neighbors meet, engage, and advocate within their community councils. The FCC’s mission is to foster and support neighborhood engagement, helping individuals bring civic life into their communities. We hope this film inspires you in becoming a change maker in your community.”
