Register for Caste: How the Hierarchy We Have Inherited Restricts Our Humanity with Isabel Wilkerson
Isabel Wilkerson is the barrier-breaking author of the New York Times bestsellers The Warmth of Other Suns and Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents, whose courage and conviction have cemented her as one of the most important narrative nonfiction writers of our time.
Caste: How the Hierarchy We Have Inherited Restricts Our Humanity 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, 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 toward hope in our common humanity.
