This Thanksgiving, as we gather with friends and family, it’s essential to reflect on the power of community and the importance of active participation in civic life. Robert Putnam’s seminal work, Bowling Alone, highlights the decline of social capital in America and how disconnection from communal activities has impacted our society. Today, the challenges of economic divides and social isolation remain, but by engaging in clubs, organizations, and volunteer groups, we can rebuild our social fabric and create a brighter, more connected future.
