The Warmth of Other Suns

*The Warmth of Other Suns* by Isabel Wilkerson chronicles the Great Migration, when millions of African Americans moved from the rural South to Northern and Western cities from 1916 to 1970. The book shares personal stories of three individuals to illustrate this transformative movement, driven by the pursuit of safety, economic opportunity, and freedom from racial violence. It explores how this massive migration reshaped American society, culture, and demographics, highlighting the resilience and hope of those seeking a better life despite facing persistent racism and challenges along the way.
