The Warmth of Other Suns

Isabel Wilkerson

From 1915 to 1970, six million African-American people left the southern cities in a hopeful search for a better life in the North. In ‘’The Warmth of Other Suns,’’ Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Isabel Wilkerson combines historical facts with intimate stories of three individuals—Ida Mae Gladney, George Swanson Starling, and Robert Pershing Foster—and tells one of the biggest underreported stories of the twentieth century—the story about the Great Migration.

Caste

Isabel Wilkerson

“Caste: The Origins of our Discontents” looks at American society through the lens of caste. Wilkerson convincingly argues how a racially segregated caste system has been established in the U.S. and how it defines the lives of its citizens to this day. She draws shocking parallels to the other two great caste systems in history, the caste system of India and the caste system of Nazi Germany.
