Inheritocracy

Eliza Filby’s own voice serves as both narrator and subject in this deeply personal journey through privilege and power. Her storytelling is vivid and unflinching, making the listener feel every moment of her rise—and fall—within a system designed to maintain the status quo. The pacing is deliberate, allowing for moments of introspection that cut deep. However, at times, the narrative can feel overly academic, bogging down with detailed explanations that might detract from its impact. Still, Inheritocracy remains a compelling exploration of class and opportunity, making it essential listening for anyone curious about the true nature of our social order.
