I hope that you will join us on Friday, June 4, at 12:00 pm Pacific Time for this special South Asia event, in which Vincent Wimbush, Director of the Institute for Signifying Scriptures, will interrogate the ways in which the categories of race, caste, hierarchy, and difference are framed in Isabel Wilkerson’s book Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents. Amit Ahuja, Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of California, Santa Barbara, will respond to Wimbush’s talk and will reflect on Wilkerson’s book from the perspective of his studies of caste hierarchies in India. Please see the link to the Zoom meeting below.
