Films on Fridays: My Name is Pauli Murray


Date: Friday, March 20, 2026
Time: 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM
Campus: Dayton
Location: Building 11, Room 324

Join for a discussion and screening of the 2021 documentary directed by Julie Cohen and Betsy West. 

Fifteen years before Rosa Parks refuses to give up her bus seat, Pauli Murray fights for social justice.  Overlooked by history, Pauli Murray was a legal trailblazer whose ideas influenced RBG’s fight for gender equality and Thurgood Marshall’s civil rights arguments. This is a portrait of her impact as a non-binary Black luminary: lawyer, activist, poet, and priest who transformed our world.
