Abstract: "Throughout her prodigious life, activist and
lawyer Pauli Murray systematically fought against all
arbitrary distinctions in society, channeling her outrage at
the discrimination she faced to make America a more
democratic country. In this definitive biography, Rosalind
Rosenberg offers a poignant portrait of a figure who played
pivotal roles in both the modern civil rights and women's
movements. A mixed-race orphan, Murray grew up in segregated
North Carolina before escaping to New York, where she
attended Hunter College and became a labor activist in the
1930s. When she applied to graduate school at the University
of North Carolina, where her white great-great-grandfather
had been a trustee, she was rejected because of her race. She
went on to graduate first in her class at Howard Law School,
only to be rejected for graduate study again at Harvard
University this time on account of her sex. Undaunted, Murray
forged a singular career in the law. In the 1950s, her legal
scholarship helped Thurgood Marshall challenge segregation
head-on in the landmark Brown v. Board of Education case.
When appointed by Eleanor Roosevelt to the President's
Commission on the Status of Women in 1962, she advanced the
idea of Jane Crow, arguing that the same reasons used to
condemn race discrimination could be used to battle gender
discrimination. In 1965, she became the first African
American to earn a JSD from Yale Law School and the following
year persuaded Betty Friedan to found an NAACP for women,
which became NOW. In the early 1970s, Murray provided Ruth
Bader Ginsburg with the argument Ginsburg used to persuade
the Supreme Court that the Fourteenth Amendment to the
Constitution protects not only blacks but also women - and
potentially other minority groups - from discrimination. By
that time, Murray was a tenured history professor at
Brandeis, a position she left to become the first black woman
ordained a priest by the Episcopal Church in 1976. Murray
accomplished all this while struggling with issues of
identity. She believed from childhood she was male and tried
unsuccessfully to persuade doctors to give her testosterone.
While she would today be identified as transgender, during
her lifetime no social movement existed to support this
identity. She ultimately used her private feelings of being
"in-between" to publicly contend that identities are not
fixed, an idea that has powered campaigns for equal rights in
the United States for the past half-century." --
