' We must all hang together; for if we do not, we shall most assuredly all hang separately. '
β Benjamin Franklin, 1776
It's not just history, anymore.

Fascinating

Everyone interested in building community should check out the documentary Join or Die. Better yet, do a screening or watch party. It really drives home the need for community organizations of all varieties.

A trio of statisticians at the University of Minnesota has found an association between union membership and lower mortality rates. In their study published in the journal Social Science & Medicine, Tom VanHeuvelen, Xiaowen Han and Jane VanHeuvelen analyzed data mortality rates tabulated in the Panel Study of Income Dynamics and calculated the impacts on longevity for people who belong to unions.
FYI, the #movie #JoinOrDie is free on Netflix. I saw it 1.5 years ago and have been waiting until itβs available to recommend it to others. Itβs well made and kinda fun, but explains why joining or starting a club in your neighborhood is one of the best things you can do to save democracy. Seriously.
Today was the first day of the IRL Movie Club. Thank you to the @roxietheater for hosting the San Francisco contingent π¬
I loved saying hello to fellow attendees. If anyone has some suggestions on SF clubs to join, please leave a comment x
I hope I see you all at the next screening (whatever and whenever that may be)
