Feature interview: the film exploring the decline in community

Join a club and save democracy. 30 years ago, political scientist Robert Putnam published research explaining that people were becoming increasingly disconnected from each other and disengaged with their communities because they stopped joining clubs, going to church or participating in school groups. Pete Davis was one of Putnam's students. His sister Rebecca was a producer at NBC news. Together they tracked Putnam down and put together a documentary about the decline in community and connection called Join or Die.
