"Something is very wrong, Gladwell argues, with the tools and strategies we use to make sense of people we don't know. And because we don't know how to talk to strangers, we are inviting conflict and misunderstanding in ways that have a profound effect on our lives and our world.” ~ Goodreads review (2019)
The book club will consist of three sessions, where participants will read the designated chapters before attending each meeting. Facilitators will ask questions and guide the conversation. Attendees are encouraged to come prepared with topics and experiences they’re most interested in exploring further.
Those who register are strongly encouraged to attend all sessions. This will allow participants to have deeper conversations, form stronger relationships and explore ideas with the group that can be built upon over the three sessions.
