不推荐 感觉逻辑性很差 观点不够。干货太少
评分比较了美国、印度、德国的“Caste”,用“Caste”来分析美国的racism,有很多具体的残酷的例子和作者的亲身经历,"The issue of caste was, to my mind, the basis of every other -ism" (171).这是她这本书有意思的地方之一,“the issue of Caste”指的是那八个pillars,也指人们先是divide然后rank (assign values to different position)的思维方式。如果critical一点来说,我觉得她太乐观了,而对有两个例子(教授和奥巴马)的分析似乎仍然含有作为知识分子的优越感,在想要废除一种ranking的同时又维护另一种ranking
评分本书将美国的种族主义与印度种姓制进行类比 读完依旧觉得周而复始的种族主义风潮与应运而生的民权对抗运动的历史渊源与成因难以进行非常清晰的界定 书中一些例证与论点有时逻辑联系不够紧密 但总体对这个论题的启发性还是非常有意义的 美国作为一个移民国家 建国伊始与移民初至的指导精神却似乎不是和谐的民族大熔炉 移民在新国度的处事方式是迅速认定最有利其生存的阶层链条 故而巩固加剧了基于种族的阻隔 虽然历史不长 但美国种族主义的存在年限从绝对值衡量和所占比例都是极高的 最打动我和令我赞许的是德国正视纳粹时期历史的国民态度 和教育中给予的重视程度 唯有深刻剖析历史背景 强调沉重性 方能世代传承正确前行的路径

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • OPRAH’S BOOK CLUB PICK • The Pulitzer Prize–winning, bestselling author of The Warmth of Other Suns examines the unspoken caste system that has shaped America and shows how our lives today are still defined by a hierarchy of human divisions.
“An instant American classic.”—Dwight Garner, The New York Times
“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.”
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.
Beyond race, class, or other factors, there is a powerful caste system that influences people’s lives and behavior and the nation’s fate. Linking the caste systems of America, India, and Nazi Germany, Wilkerson explores eight pillars that underlie caste systems across civilizations, including divine will, bloodlines, stigma, and more. Using riveting stories about people—including Martin Luther King, Jr., baseball’s Satchel Paige, a single father and his toddler son, Wilkerson herself, and many others—she shows the ways that the insidious undertow of caste is experienced every day. She documents how the Nazis studied the racial systems in America to plan their out-cast of the Jews; she discusses why the cruel logic of caste requires that there be a bottom rung for those in the middle to measure themselves against; she writes about the surprising health costs of caste, in depression and life expectancy, and the effects of this hierarchy on our culture and politics. Finally, she points forward to ways America can move beyond the artificial and destructive separations of human divisions, toward hope in our common humanity.
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.

评分撰文 | 赵蕴娴 编辑 | 黄月 “你知道,在非洲不存在黑人。”当美国普利策奖得主伊莎贝尔·威尔克森听到一位尼日利亚剧作家如此说时,她明白自己永远也不会忘了这句话。只有来到新大陆的非洲人才会成为黑人,此前他们是埃维人、阿坎人、伊博人……而白人在抵达之前,也只是波兰...
