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 thi****traordinary
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.
