Description

When Anita Hill was ten, she was picking cotton in rural Oklahoma. One of thirteen children, she grew up amidst a loving family who ran a small farm. By the time she was twenty-five, she was a graduate of Yale Law School and less than ten years later, she was sitting in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee, the subject of some of the most intense scrutiny and horrible vilification that anyone has experienced in modern times. She never wavered from her path.

Only now do we meet that young farm girl, and the woman she is today--one of the most controversial figures in 20th century American history. Second-guessed by politicians on both sides of the fence, indicted by the media before she'd even had the chance to testify, Anita Hill nonetheless stood firm in a battle she never asked for. Now, after six years of hearing everyone else tell her story (often erroneously, frequently in slanderous terms), she has decided to tell it herself.

During the Senate hearings, the press gave four times as much column space and air time to Clarence Thomas and his supporters as it did to Anita Hill and hers. Now it's her turn to be heard.
