NONFICTION
WINNER: Caste
Performed by Robin Miles
Between the pandemic, the election, and important conversations about race and inequality in our country, 2020 has given us more than enough real-life stories—and it’s truly been a year of extremes. Including listens that are hyperfocused on the ''now'' of 2020 and the history that has brought us here, all these titles feature deep and introspective reflection. Listens like Caste take on the history of racism that pervades the structure of the United States. Antiracism and antixenophobia have also been featured heavily—whether taking place at our borders or within each of us individually. There’s also that other big thing about 2020—the pandemic. Whether you want to learn about the medical professionals fighting on the front lines or simply need a scientific reminder about the importance of breathing correctly, this year’s nonfiction has it all.
