Anita Hill: The Moment That Made #MeToo Possible

This week, we dive into the Clarence Thomas hearings and the woman who changed the conversation forever: Anita Hill.

Anita Hill made history in 1991 when she testified about the sexual harassment she had experienced while she was an aide to Clarence Thomas, a Supreme Court nominee who had been her supervisor at the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. We unpack her testimony, the senators who voted to confirm, and the legacy of a moment that still echoes today.
