Anita Hill
The experience of testifying and the aftermath have changed my life

Anita Hill
I am really proud to be a part in whatever way of women becoming active in the political scene. I think it was the first time that people came to terms with the reality of what it meant to have a Senate made up of 98 men and two women.
Anita Hill

I work every day to live up to my mother's model. She was a very proud woman. And she really prepared me to go off into the world as a proud daughter.
Anita Hill
If I can mean to people - if I can symbolize the ability to pursue gender equality, racial equality, and to be truthful about our experiences, then, absolutely, that's what I want to be.
Anita Hill
But the issue of sexual harassment is not the end of it. There are other issues - political issues, gender issues - that people need to be educated about.
Anita Hill
Certainly my life will not ever be as private and discreet, and perhaps I should even use the word insulated, as it was before
Anita Hill
The real problem is that the way that power is given out in our society pits us against each other.
Anita Hill
I'm not sure I can say there is a clean line between me as an individual and me as a lawyer.
Anita Hill
In July of 1983, I left Washington, DC area and have had minimal contact with Judge Clarence Thomas since
Anita Hill
Because I was extremely uncomfortable talking about sex with him at all and particularly in such a graphic way, I told him that I did not want to talk about these subjects.
Anita Hill
