Description

Beyond race and class lies a powerful caste system that influences people’s lives, behavior, and the nation’s fate. In a powerful talk that forces audiences to reimagine America’s past and present, author and historian Isabel Wilkerson spotlights the insidious undertow of caste and the effects of this hierarchy on our culture, politics, and everyday lives. She explores the pillars that underlie caste systems across civilization, underscoring these shadow structures with immersive, deeply-researched narratives, before pointing to how America can move beyond the artificial and destructive separations of human divisions and toward hope in our common humanity. Join us for this session with Pulitzer Prize winner and author of the critically acclaimed bestsellers The Warmth of Other Suns and Caste, Isabel Wilkerson.
