Years before the Me Too movement, in 1991, Anita Hill testified that the then-Supreme Court nominee Clarence Thomas sexually harassed her.
On Wednesday’s edition of “Closer Look.” Hill, a longtime lawyer and educator, discussed her historic testimony, her ongoing fight to end gender-based violence and her new book, “Believing: Our Thirty-Year Journey to End Gender Violence.”
During the conversation, Hill told program host Rose Scott that 1 in 4 women experience intimate partner violence.
Hill further explained that she doesn’t know anyone who doesn’t know someone who has not been sexually harassed and— that her new book is for survivors, victims and allies.
“This book isn’t about me, it’s about us, it’s about all of us,” explained Hill.
