Deja Vu?

Nearly three decades after Anita Hill courageously testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee, we are here again. Blaming women. Silencing victims. And letting bad men get away with murder.

Will anything be different?

Fortunately, Anita Hill and Christine Blasey Ford are showing us how it’s done — fierce and graceful courage in the face of great risk. Anita Hill sourced inspiration from this quote by Eleanor Roosevelt which hung in her office for many years…

“You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face…You must do the thing you think you cannot do.”

We don’t just believe Christine Blasey Ford, #WeAreChristineBlaseyFord

Let’s do the hard thing for ourselves, one another and the many generations to follow and #STOPKAVANAUGH. See you in DC.
