Curiosity as an Act of Courage: A Conversation with Mónica Guzmán
What if staying curious — even when it feels risky — is an act of courage? In this episode of Nonviolence Radio, journalist and bridgebuilder Monica Guzmán joins us to talk about the power of curiosity in a polarized world. Together we explore how fear, pain, and technology amplify division, and how curiosity can become a nonviolent force that keeps bridges standing, even when crossing them feels impossible. Guzmán shares insights from her work with Braver Angels, stories of rehumanization across political divides, and why questioning — even our own side — takes courage. At a time when polarization tempts us to burn bridges, curiosity reminds us to keep them.
“Anything courageous requires risk. You’re not risking anything by attacking the other side. What’s really brave is calling out your own side for making the culture toxic.” ~Mónica Guzmán
