Less than two weeks before Americans head to the polls, Grand Rapids Community College has invited GOP strategist and CNN political contributor Ana Navarro to kick off its 2018-2019 Diversity Lecture Series.

Navarro, who is an outspoken critic of President Donald Trump, will likely address today’s hostile political climate and share predictions for its impact on the U.S.’s political future in her talk, which is entitled, “Political Outlook.”

Ana Navarro speaks as part of GRCC's Diversity Lecture Series on Wednesday.
