How To Talk Politics Without Fighting with Monica Guzman


Listen Later

How does a liberal living in one of the deepest blue counties in the country converse with her conservative, Mexican immigrant parents who voted for Donald Trump twice? We find out today when Monica Guzman joins us on the pod! Monica is on the national leadership team of Braver Angels, a “depolarization organization” designed to reduce partisan animosity, and the author of “I Never Thought of it That Way.” Hear her share her family’s story and why she’s so passionate about people learning to have difficult conversations, even in today’s dangerously divided times. But given that it’s extremely rare for people to change their minds, particularly on political issues, what should the goal of such conversations be, and how can we know if we’ve succeeded? Has our culture lost the idea of absolute truth and can we persuade anyone anymore? Plus, she shares some practical tips for having difficult conversations with people whose worldview is different from (or even opposed to) your own. Listen now!
