In this brilliant book, Isabel Wilkerson gives us a masterful portrait of an unseen phenomenon in America as she explores, through an immersive, deeply researched narrative and stories about real people, how America today and throughout its history has been shaped by a hidden caste system, a rigid hierarchy of human rankings. Beautifully written, original, and revealing, Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents is an eye-opening story of people and history, and a reexamination of what lies under the surface of ordinary lives and of American life today.

Histoire
Americans have built an empire on the idea of “race”, a falsehood that damages us all but falls most heavily on the bodies of Black women and men - bodies exploited through slavery and segregation and, today, threatened, locked up, and murdered out of all proportion. What is it like to inhabit a Black body and find a way to live within it? And how can we all honestly reckon with this fraught history and free ourselves from its burden? Between the World and Me is Ta-Nehisi Coates’ attempt to answer these questions in a letter to his adolescent son.

It is the story of 11-year-old Pecola Breedlove--a black girl in an America whose love for its blond, blue-eyed children can devastate all others--who prays for her eyes to turn blue: so that she will be beautiful, so that people will look at her, so that her world will be different. This is the story of the nightmare at the heart of her yearning and the tragedy of its fulfillment.

In arresting, but harrowing, prose, James Daschuk examines the roles that Old World diseases, climate, and, most disturbingly, Canadian politics—the politics of ethnocide—played in the deaths and subjugation of thousands of Indigenous people in the realization of Sir John A. Macdonald’s “National Dream.” It was a dream that came at great expense: the present disparity in health and economic well-being between Indigenous and non-Indigenous populations, and the lingering racism and misunderstanding that permeates the national consciousness to this day.

Through the last 150 years of American history—from the post-reconstruction South and the mythic stories of cowboys in the West, to the present-day controversy over NFL protests and the backlash against the rise of women in politics—Ijeoma Oluo exposes the devastating consequences of white male supremacy on women, people of color, and white men themselves. Mediocre investigates the real costs of this phenomenon in order to imagine a new white male identity, one free from racism and sexism.

In White Fragility, Robin DiAngelo explained how racism is a system into which all White people are socialized and challenged the belief that racism is a simple matter of good people versus bad. DiAngelo also made a provocative claim: White progressives cause the most daily harm to people of color. In Nice Racism, her follow-up work, she explains how they do so. Drawing on her background as a sociologist and over 25 years working as an anti-racist educator, she picks up where White Fragility left off and moves the conversation forward.

Histoire
America’s backstory is a whitewashed mythology implanted in our collective memory. It should come as no surprise that the dominant narrative of American history is blighted with errors and oversights—after all, history books were written by white men with their perspectives at the forefront. It could even be said that the devaluation and erasure of the Black experience is as American as apple pie. In Black AF History, Michael Harriot presents a more accurate version of American history.

She interviewed more than a thousand people, and gained access to new data and official records, to write this definitive and vividly dramatic account of how these American journeys unfolded, altering our cities, our country, and ourselves.

As Ferguson, Missouri, erupted in August 2014 and media commentators across the ideological spectrum referred to the angry response of African Americans as 'Black rage', historian Carol Anderson wrote a remarkable op-ed in the Washington Post showing that this was, instead, 'white rage at work. With so much attention on the flames,' she wrote, 'everyone had ignored the kindling.'

Description
Number One New York Times Best Seller
A dramatic expansion of a groundbreaking work of journalism, The 1619 Project: A New Origin Story offers a profoundly revealing vision of the American past and present.
Named one of the best books of the year by The Washington Post • NPR • Marie Claire
In late August 1619, a ship arrived in the British colony of Virginia bearing a cargo of 20 to 30 enslaved people from Africa. Their arrival led to the barbaric and unprecedented system of American chattel slavery that would last for the next 250 years. This is sometimes referred to as the country’s original sin, but it is more than that: It is the source of so much that still defines the United States.
The New York Times Magazine’s award-winning “1619 Project” issue reframed our understanding of American history by placing slavery and its continuing legacy at the center of our national narrative. This new book substantially expands on that work, weaving together 18 essays that explore the legacy of slavery in present-day America with 36 poems and works of fiction that illuminate key moments of oppression, struggle, and resistance. The essays show how the inheritance of 1619 reaches into every part of contemporary American society, from politics, music, diet, traffic, and citizenship to capitalism, religion, and our democracy itself.
This is a book that speaks directly to our current moment, contextualizing the systems of race and caste within which we operate today. It reveals long-glossed-over truths around our nation’s founding and construction - and the way that the legacy of slavery did not end with emancipation, but continues to shape contemporary American life.

Get the history right
For any citizens of the world, this is a true eye opener about how to create a world that’s safe for our children - ALL OUR CHILDREN. In an unjust society, everyone looses in the long term.
This is a much needed account of our shared history and what we must reconcile with and address to create a future and a world we all envision for our children.

Facts Matter
In this text miss. Jones attempts to write a revisionist history which seeks to create a victim group who’s failings, shortcomings and faults can all be laid at the feet of another race of people. I remember reading a similar book from 1930s Germany. This book sought to lay all the problems which one race had at the feet of another race, the Jews. Both texts are false in their conclusions and filled with untruths both by commission and omission at best most of the assertions this text made can be classified as wildly exaggerated half truths. Since I could write my own book simply correcting the falsities of this narrative I’ll simply correct a few of the more glaring problems.
1) slavery was a cultural universal every race of people on earth enslaved and where enslaved. In fact more white people where sold in the slave markets of Africa and the Middle East than Africans brought to America. I’m sure these darker skinned Masters treated their white slaves with as much contempt and brutality as the whites treated the black people of America.
2) Who is more guilty in this process, The Africans who kidnapped, enslaved and sold the ancestors of African Americans to the White traders or the whites who bought them? It seems like there is more than enough blame on both sides of the ledger here.
3) The first slaves in America where Irish not African. The colonial laws in fact made no distinction between white and black servants. Between indentured servitude and the Irish many ancestors, the whites helped build America as well with their forced labor.
4) I would ask Miss. jones, you add many stories regarding the pre civil rights abuses against African American’s dating back to the founding and try to act as though they are depictions of a still existent racism in America. Like it or not lots has changed in the 60 years since the civil rights movement. It seems to me America provided you with an education, a lifestyle and opportunities and you made the most of them and now possesses a PHD and a position at a university. Obviously Racism has thwarted your dreams! (Sarcasm).
5) Modern stories of racism and police brutality have nearly all been debunked! Trevon Martin was on top of Zimmerman when he was shot, this was not an execution but self defence (see related ballistics report). George Floyd was a drug dealer who had held a gun to a pregnant woman’s stomach! Mr. Floyd was a piece of human garbage who died because he swallowed the fentanyl he was dealing instead of getting arrested with it, his death was caused by a self inflicted overdose! Not police brutality or racism! We can go through the litany of them, hand up don’t shoot didn’t happen! The famous noose at Daytona! Didn’t happen! Jesse Smollet? Yes that didn’t happen either.6
6) America is racist? Compared to where? China where they depict people of African decent as gorilla's. How about Saudi Arabia where black people are still referred to as slave! If you think America is racist then clearly you’ve never been outside your backyard. America is not racist (that doesn’t mean there aren’t racists but to suggest that it is a racist nation is patently false). If not then why are people of colour from all over the world in lineups to come to America? I’m Métis (Native American and European decent) would I want to go to America if I thought I was going to be treated like a second class citizen? Of course not, that would be foolish and I assume that other people of colour are capable of assessing that fact and they make a rational decision to emigrate to America.
There are so many issues with this book and I can’t deal with all of them but I will say to Dr. Jones and here contributors that the demonstrable falsehoods of her book demean her and every other African American. By committing the historians cardinal sin of interpreting history through the prism of her modern values, belief and culture she has warped and distorted this history so it may best described as a fiction loosely built on the facts. Dr. Jones I know you’re an intelligent person! Please do better!
