1、第 1 页 英文精彩演讲稿开场白精选1 特征码 GnZKdWyQSNhncgftQhFZ mr. chairman, senator thurmond, members of the mittee, my name is anita f. hill, and i am a professor of law at the university of oklahoma. i was born on a farm in okmulgee county, oklahoma, in 1956. i am the youngest of 13 children. i had my early educat
2、ion in okmulgee county. my father, albert hill, is a farmer in that area. my mothers name is irma hill. she is also a farmer and a housewife. my childhood was one of a lot of hard work and not much money, but it was one of solid family affection, as represented by my parents. i was reared in a relig
3、ious atmosphere in the baptist faith, and i have been a member of the antioch baptist church in tulsa, oklahoma, since 1983. it is a very warm part of my life at the present time. for my undergraduate work, i went to oklahoma state 第 2 页 university and graduated from there in 1977. i am attaching to
4、 this statement a copy of my resume for further details of my education. i graduated from the university with academic honors and proceeded to the yale law school, where i received my jd degree in 1980. upon graduation from law school, i became a practicing lawyer with the washington, dc, firm of wa
5、rd, hardraker, and ross. in 1981, i was introduced to now judge thomas by a mutual friend. judge thomas told me that he was anticipating a political appointment, and he asked if i would be interested in working with him. he was, in fact, appointed as assistant secretary of education for civil rights
6、. after he had taken that post, he asked if i would bee his assistant, and i accepted that position. in my early period there, i had two major projects. the first was an article i wrote for judge thomas signature on the education of minority students. the second was the organization of a seminar on
7、high-risk students which was abandoned because judge thomas transferred to the eeoc where he became the chairman of that office. 第 3 页 during this period at the department of education, my working relationship with judge thomas was positive. i had a good deal of responsibility and independence. i th
8、ought he respected my work and that he trusted my judgment. after approximately three months of working there, he asked me to go out socially with him. what happened next and telling the world about it are the two most difficult things - experiences of my life. it is only after a great deal of agoni
9、zing consideration and sleepless number - a great number of sleepless nights that i am able to talk of these unpleasant matters to anyone but my close friends. i declined the invitation to go out socially with him and explained to him that i thought it would jeopardize what at the time i considered
10、to be a very good working relationship. i had a normal social life with other men outside of the office. i believed then, as now, that 第 4 页 having a social relationship with a person who was supervising my work would be ill-advised. i was very unfortable with the idea and told him so. i thought tha
11、t by saying no and explaining my reasons my employer would abandon his social suggestions. however, to my regret, in the following few weeks, he continued to ask me out on several occasions. he pressed me to justify my reasons for saying no to him. these incidents took place in his office or mine. t
12、hey were in the form of private conversations which would not have been overheard by anyone else. my working relationship became even more strained when judge thomas began to use work situations to discuss sex. on these occasions, he would call me into his office for reports on education issues and
13、projects, or he might suggest that, because of the time pressures of his schedule, we go to lunch to a government cafeteria. after a brief discussion of work, he would turn the conversation to a discussion of sexual matters. his conversations were very vivid. he spoke about acts that he had seen in
14、pornographic films involving su 第 5 页 ch matters as women having sex with animals and films showing group sex or rape scenes. he talked about pornographic materials depicting individuals with large penises or large breasts involved in various sex acts. on several occasions, thomas told me graphicall
15、y of his own sexual prowess. because i was extremely unfortable talking about sex with him at all and particularly in such a graphic way, i told him that i did not want to talk about these subjects. i would also try to change the subject to education matters or to nonsexual personal matters such as
16、his background or his beliefs. my efforts to change the subject were rarely successful. throughout the period of these conversations, he also from time to time asked me for social engagements. my reaction to these conversations was to avoid them by eliminating opportunities for us to engage in exten
17、ded conversations. this was difficult because at the time i was his only assistant at the office of education - or 第 6 页 office for civil rights. during the latter part of my time at the department of education, the social pressures and any conversation of his offensive behavior ended. i began both
18、to believe and hope that our working relationship could be a proper, cordial, and professional one. when judge thomas was made chair of the eeoc, i needed to face the question of whether to go with him. i was asked to do so, and i did. the work itself was interesting, and at that time it appeared th
19、at the sexual overtures which had so troubled me had ended. i also faced the realistic fact that i had no alternative job. while i might have gone back to private practice, perhaps in my old firm or at another, i was dedicated to civil rights work, and my first choice was to be in that field. moreov
20、er, the department of education itself was a dubious venture. president reagan was seeking to abolish the entire department. for my first months at the eeoc, where i continued to be an assistant to judge thomas 第 7 页 , there were no sexual conversations or overtures. however, during the fall and win
21、ter of 1982, these began again. the ments were random and ranged from pressing me about why i didnt go out with him to remarks about my personal appearance. i remember his saying that some day i would have to tell him the real reason that i wouldnt go out with him. he began to show displeasure in hi
22、s tone and voice and his demeanor and his continued pressure for an explanation. he mented on what i was wearing in terms of whether it made me more or less sexually attractive. the incidents occurred in his inner office at the eeoc. one of the oddest episodes i remember was an occasion in which tho
