For this week’s episode we’re discussing When No One Is Watching by Alyssa Cole. A jaw-dropping thriller, with major Get Out vibes, that takes a deeper look at gentrification in a Brooklyn neighborhood. We’ll be chatting about Theo’s misguided intentions, Sydney’s pursuit of the truth, and the very real and harmful effects of gentrification.
