Walk in the Footsteps of Pauli Murray

Each year, the Pauli Murray Center for History and Social Justice invites our community to join us on a meaningful pilgrimage through four sites that shaped Pauli’s life, including their childhood home, high school, church, and library.

The full route covers 4.5 miles, with a shorter 1-mile option available for those who prefer it. Along the way, participants will have time for both collective and personal reflection on Pauli’s legacy. At each stop, we’ll share stories, artifacts, and archives that highlight Pauli’s lasting connection to these places.

This is a free event, and people of all spiritual backgrounds are welcome. Advance registration is required. Learn more and sign up here: https://www.ticketsource.com/.../pauli-murray.../e-xoxxqb
