I was in D.C. when the Senate basically tortured Anita Hill

and gave abuser Thomas a pass.

Still makes me sick.

I hope Ms. Hill is well.

[question everything]

1. And this would have, and will, haunt Biden

had he run, or will run for the presidency.

She is well, and strong, and recently was honored at some ceremony in New York. Looked great!

4. Thanks for the update!

8. Yep.

I lost respect for Biden. He had an opportunity, and they acted like the old-boys-network.

She was recently on a CNN panel and is amazing.

2. I remember feeling sickened watching that on tv. Still haunts me to this day.

3. Yes was totally disgusting. We knew she was telling the truth and Thomas was slime.

A total travesty of justice.

I hope she is doing well and is finally feeling some vindication for women victims.

5. Having gone back and researched the Anita Hill saga, she should be hailed...

as a modern-day hero.

6. She was brave and way ahead of her time.

7. My congressional rep Nita Lowey during that time. . .

. . .first one on the left. . .bottom of the steps

[enough]

10. Thanks for this. NT

9. She spoke up recently

There’s a myth that sexual harassment is something that happens just with Republicans instead of Democrats. People weren’t surprised that Roger Ailes harassed because Roger Ailes is conservative. When a conservative harasses or engages in misconduct, the thinking is that they’re being hypocritical. They’re the ones who tell us harassment doesn’t exist, or if it does, it’s not a big problem. When liberals harass, I think there’s a sense of betrayal, because they’re the ones who are saying we believe in women’s equality. There’s a different emotional reaction, but it’s still painful and it’s still difficult for women to come forward. It doesn’t matter who’s doing it.

When we put harassers in a political category, we’re doing that based on a failure to look at the reality of harassment. One of the paradoxes is that very liberal industries like entertainment, like tech, are still producing or reproducing the same types of behavior that have been going on in more traditional settings all along.
