There will be a screening of The Coddling of the American Mind with a talkback with the director and producer.

From the Eternally Radical Idea (Greg Lukianoff's Substack)

On February 22, a documentary version of my and Jonathan Haidt’s book “The Coddling of the American Mind” will be released exclusively on Substack. I am so excited for you all to see it. It’s directed by Ted Balaker and follows the stories of five twenty-somethings who entered college with high hopes but instead faced a serious mental health crisis sparked by the anxiety- and depression-inducing climate that Jonathan and I outlined in our book.

While we cover a great deal of ground in the book, the documentary zeros in on the topic I learned about the hard way: depression. More specifically, it shows through the testimony of students from all over the country — and in fact all over the globe — how we are teaching a generation of young people the mental habits of anxious and depressed people, and so we should not be surprised that we have a mental health calamity on our hands.
