Braver Angels Film Club: "What's Causing Declining Birth Rates?"

Film Club Topic:
We choose films that address social, political or cultural issues that are relevant to society today. They may highlight liberal-leaning, conservative-leaning or independent themes, or feature actors or directors from opposite sides of the political spectrum. Note that the discussion of this film and its inclusion on the Braver Angels website does not imply promotion of the subject matter or the persons involved in the creation of the film.

Our discussion on June 26 at 8:00 pm ET will be about the decline in birthrates worldwide. We will discuss various theories about why this is occurring, including the theory presented in the documentary “Birthgap,” and the economic and environmental implications of a worldwide decline in the number of babies born.

Please watch in advance:

• America’s shrinking population: Economic impact of falling U.S. birth rate (6 min.)
• Birthgap – Childless World (50 min.) [Ignore the Part One label; this is the only one we will discuss.]
• Is a declining birthrate a blessing or a curse? (27 min.)

Be sure to watch the video before we meet on Zoom to discuss it!
