Sobre el autor de Una mente apasionada

Noliwe Rooks, galardonada académica y directora de Estudios Africanos en la Universidad de Brown, explora el legado de la educadora y activista de los derechos civiles Mary McLeod Bethune en A Passionate Mind in Relentless Pursuit. Como voz líder sobre raza, género y educación en Estados Unidos, Rooks combina una rigurosa investigación académica con la narrativa personal para iluminar el impacto de Bethune en el liderazgo negro del siglo XX.

Las reflexiones de Rooks aparecen regularmente en The New York Times, Washington Post y NPR, y ha recibido apoyo para su investigación de las fundaciones Ford y Mellon. Nominada a un premio NAACP Image, A Passionate Mind redefine la escritura biográfica a través de su innovadora mezcla de análisis histórico y relevancia contemporánea.
