Hi folks,
We thought you might be interested in two pieces of news today about the “Join or DIe” film:

1. “Join or Die” was featured on NPR’s Marketplace show this morning:

Join a club, it’s good for democracy

2. “Join or Die” is now available to stream on Netflix:

 So much of the national conversation these days is intensifying our civic ills: polarization, screen addiction, alienation, distrust, and distraction from local community problem-solving. We hope JOIN OR DIE being more widely available can expand our efforts to offer critical counterprogramming: an urgent message that the fate of our democracy depends on our real-world engagement with our neighbors and routine participation in our local communities.

Remember, our goal is community building and getting people involved face-to-face with folks in the neighborhood and with Portland as a whole. We’ll be talking about how to move toward this goal. We hope you can join us next Monday evening.

Thanks!
