Professor Anita Hill..Confirmation

I watched the excellent film yesterday called "Confirmation" about a female Law Professor who was verbally sexually harassed by her boss who later went on to become a high powered judge in America,she was such a brave lady, and had to sit before a large group of Senators with her parents just behind her and talk about the vile details, of porn movies that she had had to listen to being described,from her boss.This case was in 1991, and a lot of questions were asked if this would happen today? the year after this case many more women became senators, in fact 1992 was called "the year of the woman". It reminded me a little of a recent case of a famous footballer who was convicted of Rape last year here in England,(Ched Evans) my non-Christian male friends were talking about her as if she had only brought the case because he was famous, but of course she had no intention of doing that,She had no memory of the rape and was just at the police station to ask about her lost handbag, it was the police who encouraged her to find out if she had been raped,(from tests.Professor Hill had no intention of shaming this man, but was asked outright by a government department Official if he had ever been inappropriate with her, she hadn't spoken about it for ten years and more importantly was promised anything she said would be kept private.Professor Hill is a role model to me, a woman so many younger women can look up too, she changed the political scene for women in America.
