About this listen

Join us as we delve into Isabel Wilkerson's groundbreaking book, "Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents." Discover how Wilkerson redefines American racism through the lens of a hidden caste system, drawing parallels to India's ancient hierarchy and Nazi Germany. We'll explore the eight pillars of caste, uncover how race became a visible marker in America's social order, and examine the devastating impact of this system on individuals and society.


This episode challenges conventional narratives, sparks dialogue, and inspires action towards a more just and equitable world. Whether you're a history buff, a social justice advocate, or simply curious about the complexities of human behavior, this thought-provoking discussion will leave you with a deeper understanding of America's past, present, and future.
