Another masterpiece by an amazing journalist (based in Chicago) lol. Definitely one of the best books of the year and defining books of the era. A must read for anyone who wants to understand America.
評分與印度種姓的比較也太隨便瞭,結構也很散亂,唯一可取的是行文還不錯,對時事的點評還算切中要害卻又一筆帶過。BLM但是還是要不要把什麼書都寫成散文啊。
評分缺乏分析力度,但依然是一口氣讀完的那類書。在美國十餘年,是就讀於南方私校的中國學生,是混跡於性彆與種族不平等行業的亞裔女性,卻終於自己找瞭這些該聽過的故事來聽。

評分[有聲書] 原來燈塔早就是燈塔瞭,也怪不得民逗一個個都現瞭黃皮兒納粹的原形。 PS: 不看短評區還真不知道我國人民群眾的美國黑人歷史基礎已經這麼深厚,對這種大雜燴式的綜述已經可以不屑一顧瞭。

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.
尽管本书试图考察等级制度对身陷其中的每一个人造成的影响,但它将最大的关注给了美国种姓制度的两级:一是处于顶层的欧洲裔美国人,他们是该制度的主要受益者;一是处于底层的非洲裔美国人,种姓制度将非人化的全部火力对准了他们。 为了校准我们对自己的看法,我使用了也许更...

評分《种姓:美国不平等的起源》 一书探讨了美国的种姓制度,提出了一些相当尖锐的观点。 种姓制度本身更知名的是印度的种姓制度,但是作者的观点是美国也存在存续时间非常久的种姓制度,即一个人的出身决定了他/她在社会中的地位和被允许取得的成就。 这一种姓制度并没有因为法律...
