I've been writing but mostly reading. My first drawing in a while. I discovered the book after reading a review in The New Yorker. Pauli Murray was an activist, lawyer, and the first woman ordained an Episcopal priest. Of mixed race, what we consider a Black woman, She graduated first in her class at Howard Law and was denied admission to Harvard because she was a woman. Her research and writing helped Thurgood Marshall with Brown v Board of Education, she helped found NOW, and provided Ruth Bader Ginsburg with the argument before the Supreme Court that the 14th amendment protected not only African Americans but women and other minority groups. She also was the first African American to get a JSD at Yale. I wonder why I never heard of her before? #janecrowthelifeofPauliMurray #Paulimurray #janecrow #drawingsofbookcovers #artist #drawing #poet #writer
