The identity of the Rosa
IV-V primary school and I secondary school of 1st grade

place At school, in an institute in the city
Ticket for schools, upon reservation

Rosa is of Nigerian origin and has a loving family: two very different little sisters to care for, a father who's always working but always smiling, and a legendary aunt: a renowned lawyer and a skilled cook. Above all, she has a mother, who has always taken care of everyone. Espérance Hakuzwimana (Mentirosa, Mondadori) tells us what it means to deal with skin color, and with her own split identity: born in Rwanda, she's always lived in Italy. Twenty years after Rosa Parks's death, accepting one's origins remains an enigma, a complication, a beauty.
