How do we understand racism by looking at caste and class?    Pull up a seat and join us for a special roundtable episode with the Lagralane Team.    Using the book Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents, by Isabel Wilkerson as a source of exploration, we help define what caste is, and discuss how race has become the basis of our caste system in the United States. We also talk about how caste affects each of us personally \u2013 and what we can do to bring about meaningful change.    Through the lens of our multi-ethnic and multi-generational Lagralane Team, we seek to answer the question: can we move away from caste to create a more equitable society?   How can we be the guardians of truth?   Our team has a myriad of perspectives rooted in being adopted, Black, Asian, White, mixed-race, male, female, fluid and beyond \u2026 we are representative of America and we have also lived the experiences presented in Caste. We know first-hand that we\u2019re all living in a time of discontent created by generations before us. While sipping The Comeuppance cocktail, knowing the task before us is huge, we also ask how can we make change? How can we live today so that healing can begin for so many? How do we share the task of being guardians of truth?    For more spirited discussions, make sure to subscribe to the podcast. And if you\u2019ve enjoyed thinking and cocktailing along with us, we\u2019d love for you to leave us a review.  Cheers \u2026 and Please Drink Responsibly!   Links:   Guests: The Lagralane Team (in alphabetical order)   Peppur Chambers-Soraci -  www.penandpeppur.com  https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/peppurthehotone\/   AJ Dinsmore -  https:\/\/writers.coverfly.com\/profile\/Amanda-Joy-Dinsmore https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/aj.dinsmore   Courtney Oliphant -  https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/courtney-oliphant-6546818a\/ https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/cori_anne92\/?hl=en,    Matthew Soraci -  www.lagralane.com https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/matthew.soraci Mentions: Caste:The Origins of Our Discontents by Isabel Wilkerson  https:\/\/www.penguinrandomhouse.com\/books\/653196\/caste-oprahs-book-club-by-isabel-wilkerson\/   The Gilded Age https:\/\/www.hbo.com\/the-gilded-age   The Myth of the Model Minority: Asian Americans Facing Racism by Rosalind S.

Although many believe it is \u201cun-American\u201d to challenge hateful and hurtful tropes or to demand reparations from the past 250+ years, that is exactly what we should be doing right now.  The Bizzy Izzy is a classic drink by an African American bartender in St. Louis from 100 years ago named Tom Bullock, who included this cocktail in his book, \u201cThe Ideal Bartender.\u201d   1oz fresh pineapple juice (Dole or fresh) 1oz sherry (Lustau) 1 oz  templeton rye whiskey (Templeton) \u00be oz fresh lemon juice \u00be simple syrup  A couple dashes (or more) of angostura bitters  1 oz chilled club soda  Lemon wheel garnish   Shake and pour into a highball glass.  ","author_name":"Lagralane Spirits","author_url":"http:\/\/lagralanespiritspodcast.libsyn.com\/website","html":"
