Whistleblower

My Journey to Silicon Valley and Fight for Justice at Uber
Book • 2020
Whistleblower is the powerful and inspiring true story of Susan Fowler Rigetti, who at 25 years old, faced down one of the most valuable startups in Silicon Valley history.

Her blog post about the sexual harassment and retaliation she experienced at Uber went viral, leading to the ouster of Uber's CEO and sparking a broader movement against sexual harassment.

The book chronicles her journey from an impoverished childhood to the Ivy League and then to a coveted position at Uber.

It reveals the toxic workplace culture at Uber, the aftermath of her blog post, and her determination to fight for justice despite significant personal risks.

The memoir serves as both a personal narrative and a rallying cry for a more just and equitable world.
