“Caste: The Origins of Our Discontent” by Isabel Wilkerson

"As we go about our daily lives, caste is the wordless usher in a darkened theater, flashlight cast down in the aisles, guiding us to our assigned seats for a performance. The hierarchy of caste is not about feelings or morality. It is about power--which groups have it and which do not." In this brilliant book, Isabel Wilkerson gives us a masterful portrait of an unseen phenomenon in America as she explores, through an immersive, deeply researched narrative and stories about real people, how America today and throughout its history has been shaped by a hidden caste system, a rigid hierarchy of human rankings.” -- Provided by publisher. 

Please read through Part 4 (of 7). The date of our second discussion is TBD.

Free and Open to the public - RSVP here (zoom details will follow in email closer to date)
