Isabel Wilkerson&rsquo\;s \;Caste: The Lies That Divide Us \;fast became one of th e world&rsquo\;s most talked about books this past year for its clear-eyed survey of the unspoken social hierarchy that pervades history and our liv es today. Drawing parallels between America\, India and Nazi Germany\, the Pulitzer Prize&ndash\;winning journalist argues that race and class divis ions are largely informed by a powerful\, unacknowledged caste system that everyone knows in their bones. Join Isabel\, who will appear live via vid eo\, in conversation about the myths of meritocracy\, the endurance of whi te supremacy and what we can do to dismantle the corrosive social hierarch y that persists throughout the world today.
