Sex & Justice

Prompt 1:In the documentary Sex and Justice, Clarence Thomas was accused of very serious sexual harassment charges.  Thomas was deeply offended by these accusations and referenced the charges to "high-tech lynching."  He took these accusations personally, claiming they were racially charged.  The idea of "high tech lynching" sparks a plethora of controversy.  Thomas also often referenced that he was trying to get his name back.  My interpretation is that when he referred to the term of high-tech lynching he was implying that someone is trying to lower his name because of his race. This case was not only painful forThomas.  Anita Hill's claims were repetitively denied and not taken seriously.  All in all, I don't believe that the case was fairly looked at.  I believe this was because Thomas was a male and he was more politically accomplished.
