About this ebook
Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents is written by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Isabel Wilkerson, the first Black woman to have received the honor of being awarded the prestigious recognition for her journalistic work. Her debut book, The Warmth of Other Suns: The Epic Story of America's Great Migration, was published in 2010.
In her second nonfiction book, Caste, the author talks about the deeply entrenched biases and discrimination prevalent in American society, particularly those against Black Americans, and how those aggressions continue to affect their lives. She encourages the readers to stand against such prejudices and to strive to create a fair and transparent culture.
A Brief Look Inside:
EVERY GOOD BOOK CONTAINS A WORLD FAR DEEPER
than the surface of its pages. The characters and their world come alive,
and the characters and its world still live on.
Conversation Starters is peppered with questions designed to
bring us beneath the surface of the page
and invite us into the world that lives on.
These questions can be used to create hours of conversation:
• Foster a deeper understanding of the book
• Promote an atmosphere of discussion for groups
• Assist in the study of the book, either individually or corporately
• Explore unseen realms of the book as never seen before
