Levi's Unbuttoned: The Woke Mob Took My Job but Gave Me My Voice Hardcover – November 15, 2022
Purchase options and add-ons
By then, she was already a top executive at Levi’s and the company hailed her for her courage. But just a few years later, when she refused to blindly follow the narrative on the government response to COVID-19, her previously loyal “woke” community turned on her. None of her prior political activism in support of children, racial equality in the workplace, or voting rights mattered. Nor did the fact that she was the executive sponsor of Levi’s Black Employee Resource Group. Nor the fact that she had led the company’s initiatives on gay rights, women’s reproductive rights, or gun control.
For all that, she was undeterred. She understood full well the long-term damage that school closures and virtual learning would have on an entire generation of children, and that the greatest burden would fall on the poorest and most vulnerable of them. After failing to rouse the interest of the mainstream media, Sey went on Fox’s The Ingraham Angle to plead her case -- and the internal pressure to fire her reached a fever pitch. Ultimately, Levi’s CEO finally told her that it had become “untenable” for her to remain at the company. Even then, Sey refused to a million-dollar severance package. Why? Had she taken the money, she would have been required to sign an NDA and stay silent about the whole affair—and that was too steep a price.
A riveting story of not only Sey’s 23-year career at Levi Strauss & Co. but of her prior experience as a world class gymnast, Levi's Unbuttoned is a riveting read. It is sure to be one of the top books of the 2022 holiday season.

Review
"Jennifer Sey stood up to the mob braying for her head after she had the nerve to publicly challenge draconian mask mandates and school closures. She knew her refusal to back down could cost her her dream job but protecting children was more important. In 'Levi's Unbuttoned, ' we hear the voice and resolve of a woman who's paid a steep price for the sin of being unapologetic and right. Inspirational!"
-- Megyn Kelly, journalist
"Let's face it: we lost our collective mind in 2020 and 2021. But amidst the insanity, a few voices emerged with clarity and conviction. Jennifer Sey's is one of them. She is a model of dignity and courage under fire. 'Levi's Unbuttoned' is a must-read for anybody seeking proof that dark times inspire bright lights. Highly recommended."
-- Michael Shellenberger, author of San Fransicko and Apocalypse Never
"At a time when America needed heroes, Jennifer Sey arrived. As the brilliant young Brand President of Levi's, she had a lot to lose by questioning COVID-19 mandates like school closures and masking children. But Sey continued to question, putting her extraordinary career on the line. She was a woman in the arena, taking abuse from friends, colleagues, and her employer. She never backed down, choosing truth over groupthink, and integrity over greed. Sey was proven right. This is a story everyone should know."
- Michele Tafoya, 4-time Emmy winning sports reporter and host of the "SidelineSanity" podcast
"In the last two and a half years, Americans have been subjected to an unprecedented assault on our most basic freedoms. Jennifer Sey is an American heroine who stood up to the brutality of corporate and government group-think on the most pressing liberty issues of our time. 'Levi's Unbuttoned' is the story of her fight against left-wing tyranny. Reading it is an inspiring and sobering experience. She lost her job, she lost friends and she was even rejected by some of her own family members. But she persevered - and the lessons she learned are informative to all students of history and lovers of freedom."
- Harmeet K. Dhillon, civil rights attorney
"Jennifer Sey showed tremendous resolve when she found herself in the crosshairs of cancel culture for expressing her personal opinions. In today's toxic social climate, a very vocal minority has the mic, and they are using it for emotional extortion. Jennifer refused to be silenced and never backed down, despite the sacrifice she ultimately had to make: her job. 'Levi's Unbuttoned' is an important book because it not only pulls the curtain back on the price that Jennifer paid for using her voice, but it also starts a very necessary conversation."
- Dr. Phil McGraw
"An inside look at woke capitalism from the vantage point of its highest levels and how the covid lockdown became a litmus test of loyalty. A stunning book!"
- Jeffrey Tucker, President, Brownstone Institute

About the author

Jennifer Sey is an American author, filmmaker, business executive and retired artistic gymnast. She was the 1986 USA Gymnastics National Champion, and a 7-time member of the U.S. Women's National Team.
Her first memoir, “Chalked Up,” was released in 2008 and detailed the coaching cruelty inflicted on children in the sport of gymnastics. Sey also produced the 2020 Emmy award-winning documentary film, “Athlete A,” which connected the crimes of Larry Nassar to systemic abuses in the Olympic movement.
Sey began working at Levi Strauss & Co. in 1999 as a marketing assistant, rising to Chief Marketing Officer and then Brand President until, in January 2022, she was asked to leave the company because of her vocal opposition to the extended closure of San Francisco's public schools during the covid pandemic. Sey rejected a million-dollar severance package, so that she could be free to tell her story. She does so in her second memoir, "Levi's Unbuttoned."
She is a mother of four, and now resides in Denver with her family.

I feel as though many people don’t think what they have to say is “important enough” or they could never write a book or go to a protest. This is not the truth. This is something we have been made to believe by those in power. Writing a book or protesting for your beliefs is not for everyone (most of us I’d say), but if you do a little online researching, you will find those that think and believe like you and in may ways enables us ro make a difference (no matter how big or small). Bottom line, I personally think the takeaway from this book, is to show that everyone still has a voice and we all need to use it to help make the world a place you want to see your kids and grandkids grow up in. Not a world that no longer cares what anyone thinks, but again, is ruled by those in power. The clarity of this jumps straight off the pages of this book. Thank you Jennifer for sharing your heartfelt, courageous and deeply emotional story with us, offering a first hand, behind the scenes view of the power the corporate and political world have over us and how important it is to use our voice (no matter how scared we are and no matter how little or big our voice might be). My deepest regard for your strength and courage in using your voice and sharing your story to help anyone and everyone!!!
Very unfortunate!
I really feel for her, having gone thru a lot of (her) experiences as well.
It’s an eye opening read 👍
