Thomas describes growing up in extreme poverty in Pinpoint, Georgia in the 1940s-50s, living in a shack with no running water or electricity. He meets his father for the first time at age 9, who promises but fails to send him a gift. Thomas details his rise from poverty to become the chairman of the EEOC and then a Supreme Court justice. However, he faces controversy when accused of sexual harassment by Anita Hill during his 1991 confirmation hearings. While some view Hill as truthful, Thomas believes the hearings were a "high-tech lynching" and writes his memoir partly to purge the lingering pain of that experience.
