Pete Davis - Join Or Die documentary

Pete Davis is the co-director and co-producer of the documentary 'Join Or Die' (now streaming on Netflix) He teamed up with Rebecca Davis (his sister) and created this groundbreaking documentary, based on the work of Harvard political science professor Dr. Robert Putnam. The film shows how important joining a club or organization is to individuals, but also to communities and democracy as a whole. In our conversation, we discuss:  The community crisis and its impact on our health, social connection, and democracy The question you should ask yourself to figure out what club or organization you want to join Amazing practices that different organizations around America use in their meetings Inspiring stories of ordinary individuals who have created change in their communities  The personal habits that keep individuals from joining clubs  The 'ecosystem' metaphor that gives us hope that rejuvenation is possible  Interesting behind the scenes info of how a documentary is made  Great parts of the documentary that he wanted to keep in, but ultimately had to cut Ideas that each of us can use to make our communities better  How joining an organization prepares you to make change in a broader context And much more!   Resources:  Watch the preview of Join Or Die Visit the 'Join Or Die' Website (you can even host a screening!)
