For his "alleged" conduct with a female co-worker, who was herself very suspicious in the timing of her actual complaint considering she had never made an issue of it before his appointment to the supreme court, and actually followed him to another job when he moved to a different earlier posting. The innapropriate conduct were some off color jokes, which I believe he disputed, and that was about it. Considering the lengths that people like the ones in this protest went to to protect the actual serial sexual predator Bill Clinton, with what he actually did to state female workers and interns under his power, and the other sexual predator Ted Kennedy, the alleged allegations against Clarence Thomas was really nothing more than an attempt to keep a conservative, black man off of the supreme court.
Nothing he has ruled on rises to the statements of these "peace" activists.
These are from wikipedia:Anita Hill allegations
Main article:
Allegations by Anita Hill
Toward the end of the confirmation hearings, an FBI interview with
Anita Hill was leaked. Hill, an attorney, had worked for Thomas at the Department of Education and had subsequently moved with Thomas to the EEOC.
[51] Following the leak, Hill was called to testify at Thomas's confirmation hearings, where she stated that Thomas had subjected her to comments of a sexual nature. She sought to emphasize the inappropriate nature of the alleged behavior, rather than focusing on whether it was illegal or not, but said that in her view it was indeed illegal, adding that it might not "rise to the level" of illegal
sexual harassment.
[52][53][54][55] Hill's testimony included lurid details, and some Senators aggressively questioned her.
[56]
Thomas denied the allegations, saying:
[57]
This is not an opportunity to talk about difficult matters privately or in a closed environment. This is a circus. It's a national disgrace. And from my standpoint, as a black American, it is a high-tech lynching for uppity blacks who in any way deign to think for themselves, to do for themselves, to have different ideas, and it is a message that unless you kowtow to an old order, this is what will happen to you. You will be lynched, destroyed, caricatured by a committee of the U.S. Senate rather than hung from a tree.
[58]
Hill was the only person to testify at the Senate hearings against Thomas. Angela Wright, who worked with Thomas at the EEOC before he fired her,
[59] decided not to testify,
[60] but submitted a written statement alleging similar behavior, which Wright characterized as strange behavior but not harassment.
[61][62] [11] Also, Sukari Hardnett, a former Thomas assistant, wrote to the Senate committee saying that although Thomas had not harassed her, she did feel that he had inspected her as a female.

Other former colleagues testified on Thomas's behalf. Nancy Altman, who shared an office with Thomas at the Department of Education, testified that she heard virtually everything Thomas said over the course of two years, and never heard any sexist or offensive comment. Altman did not find it credible that Thomas could have engaged in the conduct alleged by Hill, without any of the dozens of women he worked with noticing it.
[65] Senator
Alan K. Simpson was puzzled about why Hill and Thomas met, dined, and spoke by phone on various occasions after they no longer worked together
This is the man that the activists want "sent back to the fields," and "lynched, along with his wife." As I wrote before, all the racism and hate, where is all the love?
