📘 Undiplomatic: How My Attitude Created the Best Kind of Trouble

By Deesha Dyer

A bold, hilarious, and inspiring memoir from the former White House social secretary who proved that being “too much” is exactly enough.

In Undiplomatic, Deesha Dyer shares her unapologetically real journey from a community college student and hip-hop journalist to becoming one of the few Black women to ever serve as White House Social Secretary—without ever shrinking herself to fit the room.

With heart, humor, and fierce honesty, Dyer reflects on being overlooked, underestimated, and dismissed—only to rise, thrive, and shake every table she sat at. This memoir is part political memoir, part cultural commentary, and all attitude. It's a love letter to Black women who dare to speak up, take up space, and create their own kind of power.

For every woman who’s been told to tone it down—this book is your permission slip to turn it all the way up.
