Twent-six years before the #metoo movement, Anita Hill sparked a national conversation about sexual harassment in the workplace when she testified against Clarence Thomas.After her astonishing testimony in the Clarence Thomas hearings, Anita Hill ceased to be a private citizen and became a public figure at the white-hot center of an intense national debate on how men and women relate to each other in the workplace. That debate led to ground-breaking court decisions and major shifts in corporate policies that have had a profound effect on our lives--and on Anita Hill's life. Now, with remarkable insight and total candor, Anita Hill reflects on events before, during, and after the hearings, offering for the first time a complete account that sheds startling new light on this watershed event.Only after reading her moving recollection of her childhood on her family's Oklahoma farm can we fully appreciate the values that enabled her to withstand the harsh scrutiny she endured during the hearings and for years afterward. Only after reading her detailed narrative of the Senate Judiciary proceedings do we reach a new understanding of how Washington--and the media--rush to judgment. And only after discovering the personal toll of this wrenching ordeal, and how Hill copes, do we gain new respect for this extraordinary woman.Here is a vitally important work that allows us to understand why Anita Hill did what she did, and thereby brings resolution to one of the most controversial episodes in our nation's history.

When these hearings took place I was a busy 45 year old married working mother. I was somewhat interested in politics and was able to watch part of the hearings on TV. At first I wasn't sure what to think or who to believe but ultimately I decided that Clarence Thomas was the more credible, mostly because I couldn't understand why Professor Hill would have followed him to another job if he had done what she accused him of doing. As time went by I came to see what a poor choice for the Supreme Court Thomas turned out to be, yet I never reconsidered my opinion about Hill until recently when I read the book "Blinded by the Right" by David Brock. This led me to read Hill's book. Today I am 34 years older than I was when the confirmation hearings were being held, and in spite of being a somewhat privileged white woman, I've learned a lot in the intervening time about how the world works, including sexual discrimination, racism, and right wing politics. Having read these two books, I regret that I wasn't wise enough to understand at the time what was going on. I am so sorry that Anita Hill was treated so badly by so many people in power and that so many people like myself were fooled by the campaign that was waged against her. What she did required immense courage and not becoming embittered by the result required immense grace.
