Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech

I believe a lot of people have been pausing in sadness to now witness the "Me, too" phenomenon and reflect back on the public's and Congress' treatment of Anita Hill.  She gave right speech and right witness, and was rejected and reviled for it.  Is there any clearer statement of lack of support for women?  The man she accused is on the United States Supreme Court.  So many of us believed her back then and yet a woman's word against a man's is seldom supported.  She was humiliated.  And not because men don't do those things but because we somehow don't think their actions are important or impactful.  We now have right speech in numbers, but even during those hearings there were other women at the ready to corroborate her testimony, but they weren't called.  A dozen women, a hundred, a thousand cannot stand against a man of power and connections.  What are we showing our daughters and granddaughters?  That right speech in the mouths of women is not heard?  Will "Me, too" change anything?  I wonder.
