"The Warmth of Other Suns: The Epic Story of America's Great Migration": Isabel Wilkerson Tracks Exodus of Blacks from US South

The Warmth of Other Suns is an epic of a book penned by Isabel Wilkerson, a Pulitzer Prize winning journalist. Wilkerson takes on the entire migration of African-Americans from the segregated South and its Jim Crow laws to the North and the so-called land of opportunity. This is a point of American history that has been largely ignored.

This is a book that all of America should engage!
