I AM THE GENTRY

I didn’t know what to title this review, but it’s true. Cara is the best kind of white person—one who recognizes privilege and constantly tries to work against the systems that make it so. Her stories are entertaining and enlightening. Great podcast!

After years of being a major fan of the one woman show, I am THRILLED to have the opportunity to listen to the brilliant storytelling of Cara Gabriel. The writing is effortless. Human. Hysterical. True social commentary and a peak inside DC life.

This series manages to be both deeply personal and utterly resonant. Cara Gabriel broaches some seriously challenging topics without making it seem that way — meaning, she’s having the difficult conversation for us, & lighting a path for us to start these own conversations in our lives. I urge you to have a listen. You’ll be better for it. TLDR; The basics: White woman reckons with privilege — reckons with grace, humor, and profundity. Not to be missed.

I love Cara’s storytelling in this. She shares her well-intentioned search for a home in a gentrifying neighborhood.... The episodes are in easy-to-digest chapters, and I can’t help but get transported through her narrative. Highly recommend!
