Film Screening: My Name is Pauli Murray
September 12
7:00–9:30 pm in Finlator Hall
In a time of historical erasure, we remember a local hero, Pauli Murray. As an activist and lawyer, Murray fought vigorously against Jim Crow and Jane Crow and continued to break barriers as the first Black woman ordained in the Episcopal Church. Murray's legacy continues as a historical figure in the trans rights movement, based on Murray's writings and expression of their own gender identity.
The screening will be followed by a conversation with Rev. Racquel Gill, who is on the board of the Pauli Murray Center in Durham and the Theologian in Residence at the Resource Center for Women in Ministry in the South.
There is no cost for this event. Please RSVP here.
