Frieda Mock’s documentary “Anita” tells the story of Anita Hill who challenged Justice Clarence Thomas’s Supreme Court nomination and sparked a national conversation about sexual harassment. Questions For Consideration:
How has Anita Hill’s case changed the way we view, and how the media covers, sexual harassment? Was the dispute just a “he said/she said” encounter that can ever be completely settled? In what way can Hill’s testimony be considered a “landmark event” in social and legal terms? How might the case help teach a new generation about sexual harassment and gender issues?
