Program Description

Event Details

Celebrate cultural heritage and awareness months while gaining a greater understanding of issues that affect our community with Movies with a Mission!  Each month, we’ll be joined by a local nonprofit organization to hear how their work positively impacts our community, then we’ll watch a film together celebrating their mission.    

For Women’s History Month, the La Crosse Branch of AAUW  (American Association of University Women) will screen the 2021 documentary, "My Name is Pauli Murray," featuring the life and contributions of this little-known and visionary legal scholar, activist, poet and Episcopal priest.  Murray, a gender nonconforming trailblazer, influenced Thurgood Marshall, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Eleanor Roosevelt, laying down a path for generations to come.
