"Caste: The Lies That Divide Us" by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Isabel Wilkerson is a profound exploration of the hidden system of divisions that extends beyond race or class and shapes our lives. In this book, Wilkerson draws connections between caste systems in different parts of the world, including the United States, India, and Nazi Germany, to reveal how these rigid hierarchies continue to divide societies.
Wilkerson identifies the eight pillars that underpin caste systems across civilizations, shedding light on the enduring impact of caste on our world today. She examines the consequences of caste on health, culture, politics, and daily life, providing compelling real-life stories that illustrate its pervasive influence.
Through meticulous research and clear-sighted analysis, Wilkerson explores how our current era, marked by conflict and upheaval, is a result of the underlying caste dynamics. She also discusses the health implications of living within a caste system and how caste affects culture and politics.
Ultimately, Wilkerson points the way forward, urging readers to move beyond these artificial divisions and work toward a more equitable and inclusive world. "Caste" is a thought-provoking and eye-opening examination of the hidden social structures that shape our societies and an urgent call for change.
For readers interested in understanding the complex dynamics of caste systems and their enduring impact on society, "Caste: The Lies That Divide Us" offers a compelling and insightful exploration.
