Guest: Rosalind Rosenberg is Professor of History Emerita at Barnard College, Columbia University. She is the author of several books including Beyond Separate Spheres: Intellectual Roots of Modern Feminism, and her latest, Jane Crow: The Life of Pauli Murray. Pauli Murray was the first African American to earn a JSD from Yale Law School and her legal work on the 14th Amendment provided the groundwork for Brown v. Board and inspired Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s work with women’s rights and the 14th Amendment.  Murray also struggled with issues of identity; by today’s standards, she would be considered transgender.
