From the left and the right, democrats and republicans, there is discord, misconceptions, stereotypes, and lies spread with reckless abandon slandering their opposition. Being able to bridge the gap between parties and individuals\u2019 different beliefs, has become more and more important as time goes on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">M\u00f3nica Guzm\u00e1n\u2019s book offers options and ways to have civil and curious conversations with people you may disagree with politically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">The book is 236 pages long if you don\u2019t include the acknowledgements and notes at the end, 258 if you do. According to Storygraph, 64% of the books I\u2019ve read this year were 300-499 pages long. It\u2019s also the first non-fiction book I\u2019ve finished so far. The word count is around 90,000, and would take an average reader about 6 and a half hours to finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a0There are no content or trigger warnings for this book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This book bills itself as a timely guide for creating and maintaining civil and curious conversations. A guide on how to make debates, \u2018debates\u2019 again, rather than fights to the death for one side or the other. It\u2019s very personal. Guzm\u00e1n writes in the first-person, and it feels like she\u2019s talking <em>to you<\/em> rather than to a general group or audience. It\u2019s light in tone, often being rather humorous, positive, and in some points upbeat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019ve found this book to be enlightening, and I have nothing but high praises for it. It helped me walk through why certain groups think the way they do. It challenged me to ask questions I\u2019d never thought to ask, and I really liked how she discussed how social media isolates and \u201cSilos\u201d people into \u201cecho chambers.\u201d Her personal and casual writing style makes the concepts she introduces incredibly easy to understand and digest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I would have liked it if she could have explained the limit to which you can communicate with others before their limited beliefs and polarization turn a conversation into an argument or even violence. As much as we would like to discuss and talk civilly, it\u2019s a known fact that<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gao.gov\/blog\/rising-threat-domestic-terrorism-u.s.-and-federal-efforts-combat-it\"> extremism is a growing domestic threat in America<\/a>. You can\u2019t have a conversation about growing political polarization without mentioning the elephant in the room, the Jan. 6 insurrection. As far as I remember, Jan. 6 is not mentioned anywhere in the book. The protestors were so polarized, and viewed their opposition so distortedly, that they turned to rioting and violence to solve it. I would have appreciated her take and advice on a situation like that. A situation that\u2019s<a href=\"https:\/\/csis-website-prod.s3.amazonaws.com\/s3fs-public\/2024-02\/240208_Doxsee_Global_Terrorism.pdf?VersionId=yNcjxwHMs48w8NFB0EMnpbA2OToZaPs7\"> getting tenser year by year<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Driving down the differences and similarities between disparate party members is incredibly important. We need this book and we need to have these bridging conversations. I feel like there is more to this conversation, that due to the tone and exact topic of her book, she isn\u2019t including. Which is totally fine! The topic is how to have difficult conversations from across the political divide civilly, not how to talk to someone with an extremist view point.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Overall this is a book I would recommend for everyone to read. The tactics Guzm\u00e1n suggests don\u2019t just apply to bridging conversations, but to everyday conversations as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I think it is clear to say that America is in a political divide.
