À propos de cet audio
A moving manifesto in poems and essays, inviting listeners to embrace their humanity and live fully alive in our age of social change, hyper-capitalism, and pervasive loneliness
yes, everyone is struggling right now
so please be gracious
be kind & patient, but subvert
every institution that relies on our suffering
Something isn’t right. Every generation thinks that, but we have more cause than most. The way our society has been constructed is just not good for our bodies, our minds, or our hearts. What possible chance do our souls have?
In his debut collection, popular Instagram poet David Gate inspires us to rally for what makes life worth living: creating art as a form of care, living beyond consumer impulse, loving our neighbors (even the odd ones), and more. With his signature snark, humor, and billowing hope, Gate invites listeners to ponder the complexities of self, community, love, and resilience.
Rejecting the notion that despair and positivity are our only available responses, Gate urges listeners to foster deep friendships that challenge social orders and embrace questions of meaning and purpose. For, in his words, “Saying something true in a world awash with lies is the first act of rebellion.”

“Where policy and programming and posturing fall short, poetry delivers. Art is going to save us, and David Gate has given us the most gorgeous book of words that matter. I can’t even pick my favorite poem, but this line is a contender: ‘Though the system takes all it can from our tired bodies . . . it will never, not ever, ransack our hallelujahs.’ Come for the language, stay for the hope. What a gift. We need it right now.”—Jen Hatmaker, New York Times bestselling author and host of the For the Love Podcast
“This book invites you to be radicalized by tenderness . . . a soulful refuge for both the cynic and the softy.”—Lyndsay Rush, USA Today bestselling author of A Bit Much
“A Rebellion of Care is audacious, generous, and loaded with love. To read David’s poetry is to be cracked wide open for the sake of beauty, wonder, and, most critically, each other. I haven’t been this moved by a book in a long time.”—Kendra Adachi, New York Times bestselling author of The PLAN and The Lazy Genius Way
