I think I have a face made for martyrdom in an old painting
Happy #BlackFriday y'all.
In the spirit of this Friday's theme of #CivilRights, #Revolution, #Equality & #BlackPower, let's talk about a powerful and criminally unknown warrior for racial & gender equality, Pauli Murray.
Pauli Murray was queer, non-binary, and a brilliant trailblazer in so many areas. Pauli was a legal scholar whose writings influenced Thurgood Marshall and Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Pauli was the first African American to graduate with a doctorate from Yale Law, a cofounder of the National Organization for Women, the first African American woman to be ordained an Episcopal priest and was later elevated to Sainthood.
There's a documentary on Pauli's life on Amazon Prime. Here's an interview about it from its creators on Democracy Now!
