# Event Details - **Event Name**: Sarah Longwell: How to Eat An Elephant - **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 14 Sep, 2026 at 06:00 pm – Mon, 14 Sep, 2026 at 07:00 pm (-07:00) - **Event Description**: Join us as she answers the question: How do you eat an elephant? One voter at a time, she says.About this EventAfter Donald Trump won the 2024 election, Sarah Longwell did what she's done nearly every week for the past eight years: She sat down with voters. She conducted hundreds of focus groups, listening to thousands of ordinary Americans―Republicans, Democrats, and the politically homeless―with the goal of understanding politics through the eyes of the people who will decide our country’s future.American voters, and what they want for their country, are at the heart of her new book How to Eat an Elephant. Longwell, the founder of The Bulwark and a popular political communicator, lays out the playbook for building a coalition big enough, bold enough, and tough enough to defeat authoritarian populism for good. Not with a single election. Not by doing another poll or debating the benefits of being more progressive or more moderate, but by building something new: A modern pro-democracy movement that can create its own communications infrastructure―just like the right has done for decades―achieve narrative dominance, elevate more compelling leaders, and talk to voters like adults.Drawing on her own unlikely political journey from a lesbian Republican operative to the vanguard of the anti-MAGA movement, Longwell makes an argument that is equal parts war manual and pep talk―with her personal and professional story woven throughout. With her trademark bluntness and humor, she explains exactly how we got here and, more important, what we must build next―all while directly quoting the most important but overlooked people in the country: the voters themselves.Join us as she answers the question: How do you eat an elephant? One voter at a time, she says.NotesAttendees subject to search; no large bags or backpacks.Photo by Pete Kiehart; courtesy of the speaker.SpeakersSarah Longwell, Publisher of The Bulwark; Author, How to Eat an Elephant: One Voter at a TimeModerator: TBA5:15 p.m. doors open & check-in6–7 p.m program7 p.m. book signing(all times Pacific Time) - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/san-francisco/sarah-longwell-how-to-eat-an-elephant/100001991731467435 - **Event Categories**: art, fine-arts, literary-art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 1 hour - Location: The Commonwealth Club - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 32.45, max: 32.45, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: San Francisco - **state**: CA - **country**: United States - **location**: The Commonwealth Club - **lat**: 37.7933452 - **long**: -122.3925028 - **full address**: The Commonwealth Club, 110 The Embarcadero, San Francisco, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Sarah Longwell: How to Eat An Elephant - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/da6fcef08602ad5b9b5644e9150c0e0c3c21456d11dd5f94bdc9940d84c73396-rimg-w1200-h675-dc6f93a5-gmir.jpg?v=1782635204 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Sarah Longwell: How to Eat An Elephant being held? - **A:** Sarah Longwell: How to Eat An Elephant takes place on Mon, 14 Sep, 2026 at 06:00 pm to Mon, 14 Sep, 2026 at 07:00 pm at The Commonwealth Club, 110 The Embarcadero, San Francisco, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Sarah Longwell: How to Eat An Elephant? - **A:** Sarah Longwell: How to Eat An Elephant is organized by Inforum at the Commonwealth Club. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
