## Resource

Happy Black History Month! This week Imara gives some extra love to a queer trailblazer that not too many are familiar with – Pauli Murray – a gender nonconforming attorney, theologist and civil rights activist. Their legal work led to the eventual recognition of sex discrimination under the US Constitution. First, Imara speaks with Professor Brittney Cooper about how Murray’s life and work fits into the larger narrative of public Black intellectuals. Then, Imara sits down with Angela T. Mason, Executive Director of the Pauli Murray Center For History and Social Justice who shares how future generations can continue to honor Murray’s legacy.  In this week's moment of Trans Joy, DJ and sound designer Jazmine T Green tells us about mixing music for a trans dance party.
