    CNN pundit saying that Blasey-Ford’s testimony is more resonant bc — unlike Anita Hill who projected strength and poise — Blasey-Ford projected vulnerability. Soo much to unpack there.

        I think you are wrong about this this time. Prof Anita Hill was an adult when she was harassed. Dr Ford was a child. A fifteen year old child. Dr Ford has obviously been steeped in "be a good girl" all her life.

        I’m not sure if u meant to come off the way u just did... but what makes u think Anita Hill hadn’t been “steeped in be a good girl all her life”?? Anita Hill had her 80yr+ parents sitting directly behind her when describing some of the most humiliating & disgusting details ever

        It’s been a difficult morning for a lot of us today. 😔 I think this thread started over a pundits comment on CNN where she juxtaposed the personas of Prof Hill & Dr. Ford while testifying. The pundit alluded to the fact that Hill represented strength & Ford vulnerability

        For us WOC that unfortunately is a long standing troupe w/alot to unpack. For some its interpreted as the world never us as vulnerable. For others its reinforcing a stereotype that b/c we’re “so strong” the types of things they describe couldn’t really have hurt that much anyway

        I understand that. You die of heart attacks at a greater rate because you take so much on yourselves to be the strong one and the world puts so much on you without asking to be the strong ones. I'll be more careful with my language. Thank you for educating me.

        There was a survey of medical students (or doctors) where they didn’t think their black patients felt the same levels of physical pain. This goes deep.

        I really feel for #DrChristineBlaseyFord 😔 On one hand Im glad she can show her vulnerability & it be respected as a strength while on the other I am saddened that projecting strength as #AnitaHill did, was seen as a weakness. We’ve come a long way but have oh so far to go...

        Too bad Dr Blasey-Ford is not muslim, Reza Aslan would salivate and automatically give her more credit. You know, in islam, a muslim's testimony is worth twice than infidel's.

        I think the time period is a huge component. We've come a long way since 1991. If that was done today, I think Clarence Thomas wouldn't be a Supreme Court Justice. If Thomas was a white judge, I'd see race being used against her, but he isn't.
