Journalist Mónica Guzmán is the loving liberal daughter of Mexican immigrants who voted—twice—for Donald Trump. When the country could no longer see straight across the political divide, Mónica set out to find what was blinding us and discovered the most eye-opening tool we’re not using: our own built-in curiosity.

In I Never Thought Of It That Way: How to Have Fearlessly Curious Conversations in Dangerously Divided Times, Guzmán, takes you to the real front lines of a crisis that threatens to grind America to a halt—broken conversations among confounded people. She shows you how to overcome the fear and certainty that surround us to finally do what only seems impossible: understand and even learn from people in your life whose whole worldview is different from or even opposed to yours.

Tombolo Books is thrilled to welcome Guzmán to share more about her experiences and strategies for navigating these challenging conversations. Kelly McBride, senior vice president and chair of the Craig Newmark Center for Ethics and Leadership at The Poynter Institute and NPR’s Public Editor, will join Guzmán in conversation for this event!
