This episode explores the recently released indie film Origin by Ava DuVernay. This is not a film review but instead considers the benefits of both what the film as well as the book that it was inspired by, Caste by Isabel Wilkerson tackle.

We cannot transcend the hurdles on our path unless we recognize them. And both the book and film do a great job at shining a light on the social and psychological hurdles many bump up against.

I mentioned the huge benefit of being exposed to these social constructs my 1st year in college. If you'd like to support a young person to see this film, please check out Ava's website offered here, to make a contribution towards their ticket.
