520    "An elegant meditation on the complexities of the American
       South—and thus of America—by an esteemed daughter of the 
       South and one of the great intellectuals of our time. An 
       inspiration."     —Isabel Wilkerson, New York Times 
       bestselling author of The Warmth of Other Suns and Caste: 
       The Origins of Our Discontents    An essential, surprising
       journey through the history, rituals, and landscapes of 
       the American South—and a revelatory argument for why you 
       must understand the South in order to understand America  
       We all think we know the South. Even those who have never 
       lived there can rattle off a list of signifiers: the Civil
       War,   Gone with the Wind, the Ku Klux Klan, plantations, 
       football, Jim Crow, slavery. But the idiosyncrasies, 
       dispositions, and habits of the region are stranger and 
       more complex than much of the country tends to 
       acknowledge. In South to America, Imani Perry shows that 
       the meaning of American is inextricably linked with the 
       South, and that our understanding of its history and 
       culture is the key to understanding the nation as a whole.
       This is the story of a Black woman and native Alabaman 
       returning to the region she has always called home and 
       considering it with fresh eyes. Her journey is full of 
       detours, deep dives, and surprising encounters with places
       and people. She renders Southerners from all walks of life
       with sensitivity and honesty, sharing her thoughts about a
       troubling history and the ritual humiliations and joys 
       that characterize so much of Southern life.  Weaving 
       together stories of immigrant communities, contemporary 
       artists, exploitative opportunists, enslaved peoples, 
       unsung heroes, her own ancestors, and her lived 
       experiences, Imani Perry crafts a tapestry unlike any 
       other. With uncommon insight and breathtaking clarity, 
       South to America offers an assertion that if we want to 
       build a more humane future for the United States, we must 
       center our concern below the Mason-Dixon Line.
