Hop on the Curiosity Mobile

Wednesday, Aug 5

🚙 Six months ago, author and “curiosity expert” Scott Shigeoka hit the road in his purple Curiosity Mobile to explore what he calls America’s “belief gap.” 

  • The idea is based on research that finds most Americans want to live in a democracy where everyone is cared for, but many doubt that kind of society is possible.
  • During his road trip, Scott connected with people across the country, from farmers to refugees to teenagers passionate about the environment. 

By asking questions and listening to their stories, he found common ground with people who might not otherwise cross paths, and a whole lot of hope along the way.
