Feminist Lit Book Club: Caste

Our next book club pick is Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents by Isabel Wilkerson.

“As we go about our daily lives, caste is the wordless usher in a darkened theater, flashlight cast down in the aisles, guiding us to our assigned seats for a performance. The hierarchy of caste is not about feelings or morality. It is about power—which groups have it and which do not.”

“A surprising and arresting wide-angle reframing . . . Her epilogue feels like a prayer for a country in pain, offering new directions through prophetic language.”—Bilal Qureshi, The Washington Post“A transformative new framework through which to understand identity and injustice in America.”—Justin Worland, Time

Whether you've finished the book, are halfway through, or just want to join the conversation with fellow feminists, you're welcome!
