HUANG Ciping's
Responses at the 63rd Symposium of China Research Institute by Mingjing Live
about the Sexual Assault Hearing in the US Congress
On Friday,
October 5, 2018, at 10am Eastern USA time, Huang Ciping, the executive director
of the Wei Jingsheng Foundation, appeared at the 63rd Symposium of China
Research Institute, in a discussion of
"The Sexual Assault Hearing: A Milestone for the MeToo Movement or
the Public Opinion Assassination of Brett Kavanaugh” on
Mingjing Live.
The invited
guests participating in the discussion also included Vicky FENG, CEO and
President of LifeScience Plus; Shan Lin, Chairman of the Asian American
Democratic Club; and ZHU Leping, a lawyer and a publisher. The symposium was hosted by Chen
Xiaoping, host of Mingjing Live.

The following
are the main points Huang Ciping made during her appearance and debate about
the MeToo campaign and the confirmation process related to Judge Kavanaugh.
1. How do you
evaluate the performance of the two protagonists at the hearing - Brett
Kavanaugh and Christine Blasey Ford?
Huang's
answer: I have been very busy recently.
I only heard a total of little more than twenty minutes of these two
while I was driving and waiting at airport terminals. I feel that professor Ford was calmer,
and Judge Kavanaugh was more intense.
2. The topic
of MeToo has seized the opportunity to become a national topic. Is it beneficial to the protection of
women or not? Will this hearing
allow women's rights topics to be used by party politics?
Huang's
answer: The original intention of the MeToo movement was for the purpose to
protect women. Thus it is good to
get people's attention. However,
this hearing indeed has become the focus and tool of party politics, and
people's votes are along party lines, which is a pity.
3. If
Kavanaugh gets confirmed, is this going to be a major setback for the MeToo
movement?
Huang's
answer: That is not necessarily the case.
The MeToo movement is a necessary step in the development of civil
society. Even if there are twists
and turns, it will continue to move forward until people can treat the opposite
sex truly and equally; and the victims dare to speak and act, thus to promote
the further realization of social equity.
4. Kavanaugh
said that the allegations have become a national shame. Some people criticize this as a juggling
and media assassination by presumption of guilt. What do you think?
Huang's
answer: I feel that Kavanaugh has raised this issue way too high. This type of experience can make people
emotional. But when one is getting
too excited by one's own emotions, it will affect a judge's ability to reach a
fair and just judgment.
5. Will this
incident exacerbate the splitting of American society?
Huang's
answer: Discussing these incidents is the beginning of solving the
problem. This will further promote
the understanding and discussion of the relevant affairs of the society, so as
to achieve the final understanding, reconciliation and resolution.
During the TV
debate, Huang Ciping also recounted the sexual harassment she and others
experienced, as well as her decades long effort and work for women's rights, as
she believe women's rights are human rights. She expressed her disappointment of the
party politics override on the fundamental issues, include women's rights. She also described the negative
responses from mostly men she received when she wrote articles calling for
women's rights and equality to men in the 1990's. In particular, she expressed her outrage
of the victims being ridiculed and doubly jeopardized when the sexual
harassment was refused or reported.
She called on all women to stand up, speak up and take action against
sexual harassment.

黄慈萍在<明镜火拍>有关美国国会性侵听证会的第63次《中国研究院》的研讨会上谈论的要点
2018年10月5日星期五上午10点（美东时间），黄慈萍参加了明镜火拍联合明镜电视与全球直播台共同播出的《中国研究院》第63次研讨会。主题是有关美国国会性侵听证会：米兔里程碑还是舆论谋杀卡瓦诺。
参加讨论的嘉宾还有LifeScience Plus CEO兼总裁Vicky
Feng，美国亚裔民主党俱乐部科州分部主席山琳，律师、出版人朱乐平。讨论会由明镜火拍主持人陈小平主持。有关录像已上互联网。网址是：https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5BXhnKf9as&feature=youtu.be
以下为黄慈萍在讨论中的主要观点与回应。
1. 您如何评价听证会上的两位主角---卡瓦诺和福特的表现？
黄慈萍：我刚好很忙，只是碰巧在机场候机和开车时听到两人总共十几分钟的表现。感觉教授女士比较冷静，而大法官候选人比较激烈。
2. 米兔话题抓住机会成为全国话题，它对女权保护有利还是不利？这次听证会事件会不会让女性权利话题被政党政治利用？
黄慈萍：米兔运动本以保护妇女为主题，能得到人们的关注也有好处。但这次听证会成为政党斗争的焦点和工具，是个遗憾。
3. 如何卡瓦诺最终当选，米兔运动是不是遭受重大挫折？
黄慈萍：那倒不见得。米兔运动是公民社会发展的必要步骤，即使有曲折，也会继续向前，直到人能真正平等地对待异性；而且受害者敢于发声并付诸行动，推动社会公平的进一步实现。
4. 卡瓦诺说所谓的指控已经成为国家的耻辱，有人批评这是一场杂耍、搞有罪推定的舆论谋杀，您如何看？
黄慈萍：觉得卡瓦诺未免把问题提得太高。这类经历会使人情绪激动。但情绪过于激动，会影响一个法官做出公平和公正的判断。
5. 这个事件会不会加剧分裂美国社会？
黄慈萍：讨论这些事件，是解决问题之开端。这会进一步推动社会对有关事务的了解与讨论，进而达到最终的理解，和解，与解决。
在电视辩论中，黄慈萍还叙述了她和其他人所遭受的性骚扰，以及她几十年来为妇女权利所做的努力和工作。她强调妇权是人权。她表达了对政党政治压倒更根本的问题的失望，其中包括妇女的权利问题。
她还描述了她在1990年代撰写的关于女权和男女平等的文章时所收到的来自大多数男性的负面回应。
她特别表达了性骚扰被拒绝时甚至被披露时，受害者被双重侮辱的愤慨和愤怒。她呼吁所有女性都站起来，大声呼吁并采取行动打击性骚扰。
