We know what happened next: she was challenged, disbelieved, and humiliated; he was given a lifelong judicial appointment. What is less well-known is how many women and men were inspired by Anita Hill's bravery, how her testimony changed the feminist movement, and how she singlehandedly brought public awareness to the issue of sexual harassment. Twenty years later, this collection brings together three generations to witness, respond to, and analyze Hill's impact, and to present insights in law, politics, and the confluence of race, class, and gender. With original contributions by Anita Hill, Melissa Harris-Perry, Catharine MacKinnon, Patricia J. Williams, Eve Ensler, Ai Jen Poo, Kimberly Crenshaw, Lynn Nottage, Gloria Steinem, Lani Guinier, Lisa Kron, Mary Oliver, Edwidge Danticat, Kevin Powell, and many others.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"These timely essays show us how those historic hearings brought sexual harassment (especially in the workplace) into the public eye, while also revealing what still hasn't changed, and reminding us of the intersection of race, class, gender, and power that underlies this contentious issue.\" --\u003cem\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Feminist Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/11\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781558618091\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 6.00w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/15\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/19\/2012 pg. 46\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2013 pg. 99\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Amy Richards","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36659753812124,"sku":"9781558618091","price":18.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_bb47d9e6-d4cb-4132-b28a-7a92a2f68916.jpg?v=1603895417","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/i-still-believe-anita-hill-three-generations-discuss-the-legacy-of-speaking-the-truth-to-power-9781558618091","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
