New Lecture Series Honors Professor Anita Hill

The feminist activist group Soapbox Inc. is launching the Anita Hill Annual Lecture on Gender Justice, a program that will travel to a different campus each year. The goal of the lecture series is to expand public discourse and debate on issues of gender justice.

The inaugural lecture series was recently held on the campus of Brandeis University in Waltham, Massachusetts, where Anita Hill serves as professor of social policy, law, and women’s studies. The initial program included the keynote address by Juhu Thukral, the director of law and advocacy for The Opportunity Agenda and the founding director of the Sex Workers Project at the Urban Justice Center in New York City. The address was entitled “Gender. Sex. Money. New Frontiers in the Fight for Sexual Rights.”
