To watch the articula te\, reserved and unshakeable Hill give a straight-forward accounting of w orkplace sexual harassment\, only to be subjected to scurrilous attacks an d dismissed as a scorned loon by a panel of smug\, old\, white men was nea rly incomprehensible.\n\nBy the time it was over\, Thomas had cleverly div erted the issue from gender to race—inexplicable because Anita Hill is als o African-American—and was confirmed. Hill returned to the classroom in Ok lahoma\, and endured threats of violence and vilification in the press and from state Republicans who sought to have her removed from her tenured pr ofessorship.\n\n \n DTSTART:20180923T183000Z DTEND:20180923T210000Z LOCATION:Auditorium\, Redpath Museum\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0C4\, 859 r ue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Sunday Documentary film: Anita URL:/redpath/channels/event/sunday-documentary-film-an ita-287367 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
