Pauli Murray Center for History and Social Justice

I was skeptical of going on a tour of the house. I felt like I knew a fair amount about Pauli Murray already, but the tour was amazing. The presentations were crisp, insightful, and generous in spirit. They book up quickly so make a reservation soon. If you are using GPS, put in the street address . . . Apple Maps sent me in circles around the West End!

We really enjoyed our tour of the Pauli Murray house. Our guide did an excellent job of highlighting the importance of Pauli's work and describing how the early years Pauli spent in the house played a crucial role in Pauli's intellectual and moral development.

I was here for a program to discuss Proud Shoes as a book club. Meeting at the place Pauli Murray was raised to discuss the book they wrote about their family history had been such a great experience. The Center is designed in a thoughtful, inclusive way and teaches so much about the different aspects of Pauli Murray's life and impact on history.

This was perfect. Small enough for elementary aged kids to make it through but also leave you wanting to know more and read Pauli's books! Thankful to have this place in Durham.

We were out searching for markers and were overjoyed to see Pauli family home restored. We were saddened that the marker wasn't up for the property. When will that go up?
