Reviews
"To say that 'Believing' is a sobering read is a gobsmacking understatement...Hill deftly sweeps aside the intricate web of denial, bias and institutional failures to show not only the causes of gender-based violence in America, but also their solutions. Hers is a brave, brazenly intelligent and ultimately hopeful womanifesto." --San Francisco Chronicle "With scholarly sophistication, Hill calls out the failings of our politicians, courts, places of work and home life. . . . Hill is uniquely equipped to offer a combined scholarly and personal perspective on this subject." --Associated Press "Anita Hill's courage on screen awakened a nation to gender violence. Now, in the pages of Believing, she shows each of us how to be courageous, too." -- Gloria Steinem "Incisive and impassioned . . . Hill's inspiring personal history, eloquently constructed arguments, and dogged persistence in shining a light on the topic make this an essential look at the fight against misogyny." --Publishers Weekly *starred and boxed review* "Hill's new book defies boundaries by bringing together elements of memoir with law, social analysis, and polemic--delivered with the precision of a powerful lawyer and the vulnerability of someone who became a target of merciless media scrutiny after testifying to being sexually harassed by now-Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas . . . With searing insight, Hill shows how much and how little things have changed since 1991. Her book gives hope, inspires activism, and discourages complacency." --Library Journal *starred review* "A powerful argument that ending gender violence is an attainable goal, if only we apply ourselves to the work." --Kirkus Reviews

Synopsis
In 1991, Anita Hill began work on something that is still unfinished. Her supporters sported bright pink buttons with the text "I Believe Anita Hill" as Thomas and his cohorts accused her, a successful law professor, of "flat-out perjury." While the strength of Hill's testimony, as well as the media sensation that surrounded it, is distinctive, the themes that underlies her activism are ever present. Believing is a story of America's three-decades-long reckoning with sexual harassment and assault as it continues to invade the power hierarchies of education, the comfort of workplace community, and the sanctity of the spaces we call home. In a combination of memoir, personal accounts, and legal and social analysis. His sheds light on the immense range of physical and emotional harm that gender violence perspetuates. What results is a plea for radical honesty, a pledge for sexual equality, and a hopeful push forward for the activists of the future. Book jacket., In 1991, Anita Hill began something that's still unfinished work. The issues of gender violence, touching on sex, race, age, and power, are as urgent today as they were when she first testified. Believing is a story of America's three decades long reckoning with gender violence, one that offers insights into its roots, and paths to creating dialogue and substantive change. It is a call to action that offers guidance based on what this brave, committed fighter has learned from a lifetime of advocacy and her search for solutions to a problem that is still tearing America apart. We once thought gender-based violence - from casual harassment to rape and murder - was an individual problem that affected a few; we now know it's cultural and endemic, and happens to our acquaintances, colleagues, friends and family members, and it can be physical, emotional and verbal. Women of color experience sexual harassment at higher rates than White women. Street harassment is ubiquitous and can escalate to violence. Transgender and nonbinary people are particularly vulnerable. Anita Hill draws on her years as a teacher, legal scholar, and advocate, and on the experiences of the thousands of individuals who have told her their stories, to trace the pipeline of behavior that follows individuals from place to place: from home to school to work and back home. In measured, clear, blunt terms, she demonstrates the impact it has on every aspect of our lives, including our physical and mental wellbeing, housing stability, political participation, economy and community safety, and how our descriptive language undermines progress toward solutions. And she is uncompromising in her demands that our laws and our leaders must address the issue concretely and immediately.
