Jonathan Kozol

    5. september 1936

    Jonathan Kozol je známy najmä svojimi nebeletristickými dielami a aktivizmom v oblasti reformy amerických verejných škôl. Jeho práca sa sústredí na témy nerovnosti, chudoby a nespravodlivosti v rámci vzdelávacieho systému. Kozolov štýl je silný a osobný, často využíva príbehy a svedectvá, aby poukázal na naliehavosť spoločenských zmien. Jeho písanie je výzvou k akcii a snahe o spravodlivejšie a inkluzívnejšie vzdelávanie pre všetky deti.

      "Extraordinarily affecting....A very important book....To read and remember the stories in this book, to take them to heart, is to be called as a witness." THE BOSTON GLOBE There is no safety net for the millions of heartbroken refugees from the American Dream, scattered helplessly in any city you can name. RACHEL AND HER CHILDREN is an unforgettable record for humanity, of the desperate voices of the men, women, and especially children, and their hourly struggle for survival, homeless in America.
