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 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!

Unfortunately the center wasn't open the day I visited, but the outdoor kiosks had a lot of history and information.

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?
