Speaker 1: Pushkin. Hi, I'm Anita Hill. You probably know me or
Speaker 1: think you do. Years ago, I was a young lawyer
Speaker 1: working in DC. I was hoping to make a difference
Speaker 1: to make my family back in Oklahoma proud. But everything
Speaker 1: changed in nineteen ninety one when I testified at a
Speaker 1: Supreme Court confirmation hearing. I became a public figure overnight,
Speaker 1: and I was vilified. After the hearing, I was at
Speaker 1: a crossroads. Would I remain in the public eye or retreat.
Speaker 1: Would I be an educator or a crusader. In the end,
Speaker 1: I didn't have to choose. These days, I teach social
Speaker 1: policy in law, I authored books and articles, and educate
Speaker 1: on issues of race and gender. But there are still
Speaker 1: so many questions that keep me up at night, like
Speaker 1: how do we solve systemic cultural problems and hold each
Speaker 1: other accountable for creating positive change. In my new podcast,
Speaker 1: Getting Even, I'm going to answer these questions by seeking
Speaker 1: and sharing stories of who we are and who we
Speaker 1: can be lessons from the law and from the human experience.
Speaker 1: I've learned firsthand about our country shortcomings, and despite it all,
Speaker 1: I still believe that we can solve society's biggest problems.
