Hills to Climb
October 3rd, 2007Clarence Thomas has written a book; Anita Hill has responded to his renewed attack on her character. I, of course, believe Anita Hill like I believe Kathleen Willey like I believe many of the women who make sexual harassment allegations, especially in cases where it’s become a trend. But aside from the actual act of sexual violence, I think I’m most troubled by the reaction people have when someone that they know or a politician that votes “the right way” is accused of such a thing. We have a long way to go since we still live in a world that turns Juanita Broderick into someone to be ignored and Anita Hill has to defend herself again.
