Believing Women: Anita Hill in Conversation
As a teacher, legal scholar, and advocate Anita Hill has been in the public eye since her landmark testimony during Clarence Thomas’s Supreme Court confirmation hearings in 1991. But, the issue of gender violence that compelled her to testify over thirty years ago is still endemic to American life. At CHF, Hill discusses her latest book Believing, a combination of memoir, law, social analysis, and call to arms on one of the most important topics of our day. Hill is joined in conversation by journalist Laura S. Washington.
This annual lecture honors the late Joanne H. Alter’s pioneering work on behalf of women interested in social action and public service.
