What if writing could be a way back to joy? A spark of courage? A practice of dreaming toward freedom? 
Join us for a half-day generative writing workshop inspired by the life and legacy of the Rev. Dr. Pauli Murray!
We’ll gather in community to write, reflect, and share—through two creative sessions shaped by:

• Courage and Joy as Resistance – Telling the story that lingers at the edge of your voice. Writing the joy that keeps you going.

• Imagination and Worldbuilding – Dreaming new worlds into being

The afternoon includes co-writing sessions, thoughtful prompts, reflection circles, and warm cups of tea and coffee facilitated by Destiny Hemphill. You’ll also be invited to contribute to a collaborative community zine if you wish! No writing experience needed! Just bring a notebook, a pen, and your full self!

The Reverend Dr. Pauli Murray earned an impressive list of titles. In addition to reverend (ordained Episcopal priest) and doctor (PhD in Juridical Science), Murray was a multiracial Black attorney, poet, scholar, activist, author, presidential appointee, and a member of the LGBTQ+ community. Little wonder we need three presenters to even begin to address Murray’s impact!  Join us to learn about an archaeological survey of Murray’s childhood home in Durham, now the site of the Pauli Murray Center for History and Social Justice. The Center’s staff will tell us how they carry on Murray’s commitment to justice and activism, and we’ll learn how K-12 teachers are inspired to bring Murray’s work into their classrooms.
