Stop thinking about who you might offend and start thinking about who
you might inspire.
Fans are always asking Tomi Lahren where she gained the confidence and
candor that have made her who she is: a celebrated free-speech advocate,
a conservative media star, and one of the most controversial pundits in
America.
In Never Play Dead, Tomi cheers on anyone, especially other young
women willing to speak their minds. She takes readers on a tour of the
internet trolls, political correctness police, campus activists, and
condescending elites who never pass up a chance to quash honest debate.
And she skewers the self-esteem movement that ironically discourages
people from speaking up for themselves.
She tells the story of how she worked her way out of South Dakota to
television fame in LA, surviving social isolation, a truly terrible
boyfriend, and awful workplaces. Along the way, she was tempted to
follow everyone's advice to keep quiet and bide her time, but she never
did.
This comes at a cost. Any time Tomi posts a video or sends out a tweet,
it makes headlines. A video of a stranger throwing a glass of ice water
at her and her parents went viral, and the president tweeted about it.
She was fired at The Blaze because she wouldn't toe the party line.
However, it's fine to lose followers as long as you never lose yourself.
Whether you've been told you're not good enough by parents, lovers,
frenemies, bad bosses, or social media, it's time to take Lahren's
advice and fight back.
Free speech isn't just saying what you want; it's hearing what you don't
want to hear. Never Play Dead teaches you to shed your fear, find your
inner strength, speak the truth, and never let the haters get you down.
