Heads up: Anita Hill is the only guest of Tavis Smiley tonight
http://www.pbs.org/wnet/tavissmiley/interviews/law-professor-anita-hill/

Law professor Anita Hill
Guest interviews are usually available online within 24 hours of broadcast.

The law professor reflects on the 20 years since her controversial testimony in Justice Thomas’ confirmation hearings and shares what she makes of the changes to the Supreme Court in the last two decades.

As a young law professor, Anita Hill found herself in a media storm 20 years ago, during Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas' confirmation hearings, and sparked a national debate on sexual harassment and gender equality in politics and the workplace. With more than three decades of legal and academic experience, the Yale law school graduate has worked in private practice and for the federal government and is currently professor of social policy, law and women’s studies at Brandeis. She's also the author of Speaking Truth to Power and Reimagining Equality.

1. thanks! having followed that fiasco twenty years ago.....maybe that's why she's on.....I
hope she will delve deeply into what was done to her, both by the republican smear machine AND the sleazy democrats on the senate judiciary committee, who allowed it to happen

by that I mean, chiefly, our current vice president

Clarence Thomas is on HIS cabbagepatch head

I wonder what he thinks about that, and what his cowardice/culpability has wrought
