I have - often say to people that you really don't get to decide your own legacy. I mean, what you do is, you try to be your own authentic self. And then people decide how they're going to interpret that and what it means to them.

I became the messenger who had to be killed

I did what my conscience told me to do, and you can't fail if you do that.

I was aware, however, that telling at any point in my career could adversely affect my future career

If I can mean to people - if I can symbolize the ability to pursue gender equality, racial equality, and to be truthful about our experiences, then, absolutely, that's what I want to be.

I thought that by saying no and explaining my reasons my employer would abandon his social suggestions. However, to my regret, in the following few weeks, he continued to ask me out on several occasions

I resent the idea that people would blame the messenger for the message, rather than looking at the content of the message itself.
