The warmth of other suns guided their path from "summary" of The Warmth of Other Suns by Isabel Wilkerson
As they made their journey from the South to the North and West, those who left behind the cotton fields, the tobacco farms, and the stifling segregation of Jim Crow were guided by a force beyond mere direction. They were driven by a yearning for a better life, a life where they could breathe freely and dream without constraint. This yearning, like a beacon in the darkness of their circumstances, drew them towards a future where their humanity would be recognized and their possibilities expanded. The warmth of other suns, the promise of opportunity and freedom in distant lands, beckoned them forward. It whispered to them of a place where the color of their skin would not determine the scope of their ambitions, where the shackles of the past could be cast off and a new beginning forged. This warmth, this promise, was a guiding light that illuminated their path through the trials and tribulations of their migration. As they traveled, they encountered obstacles and challenges that tested their resolve. Discrimination, poverty, and disillusionment threatened to derail their journey, but the warmth of other suns sustained them through the darkest hours. It gave them the strength to persevere, to keep moving forward even when the road seemed endless and the destination uncertain.- Fueled by the hope of a better life for themselves and their children. The warmth of other suns, the distant glow of a brighter future, propelled them ever onward. It was this inner fire, this unquenchable spirit of determination and resilience, that guided their path and ultimately led them to a new beginning in a world where the sun shone a little brighter and the possibilities seemed endless.
