I don’t typically read books like this but this came as a recommendation from a friend and I certainly don’t regret it.
The author, Isabel Wilkerson, did an amazing job conveying all the different aspects of caste in the history of humanity; I was personally a fan of all the analogies and anecdotes she used to drive her points home. It can be a challenging read with all the depressing or infuriating content, but it should be — it’s a reminder of how toxic the disease of caste is.
