Sobre o Autor

Sobre o autor de Uma Mente Apaixonada

Noliwe Rooks, acadêmica premiada e diretora de Estudos Africanos na Brown University, explora o legado da educadora e ativista dos direitos civis Mary McLeod Bethune em A Passionate Mind in Relentless Pursuit. Uma voz de destaque sobre raça, gênero e educação na América, Rooks combina pesquisa acadêmica rigorosa com narrativa pessoal para iluminar o impacto de Bethune na liderança negra do século XX.

Seu trabalho anterior, Cutting School: Privatization, Segregation, and the End of Public Education, recebeu o prêmio Hurston/Wright Foundation Award para Não Ficção, enquanto seu próximo livro, Integrated: How American Schools Failed Black Children, continua sua análise das desigualdades educacionais.

As percepções de Rooks aparecem regularmente no The New York Times, Washington Post e NPR, e ela recebeu apoio de pesquisa das fundações Ford e Mellon. Indicado ao NAACP Image Award, A Passionate Mind redefine a escrita biográfica por meio de sua mistura inovadora de análise histórica e relevância contemporânea.
