Bio: Linda Beatrice Brown is the retired Willa B. Player Professor of African American Literature and the Humanities at Bennett College. She is the author of seven published books, three novels, numerous poems, and essays; and her two books of non-fiction are about Bennett College and the sit-ins. Her book Belles of Liberty grew out of her lifelong decision to speak out for justice and to teach subjects that would further the cause of racial liberation. She is a frequent lecturer on topics related to social justice.
Linda took part in the Greensboro sit-ins along with her Bennett classmates, and Belles of Liberty tells the story of the participation of the Bennett women and their contributions to the movement that lasted from 1960 until 1964. Linda is an experienced spiritual student and teacher and her latest publications are two volumes of poetry and a CD focused on Mary, the mother of Jesus, entitled A Mother Knows Her Child, and Something of His Mother to Remember, were published in 2014. Her latest publication is The House of Gratitude, a collection of poems written during the pandemic year 2020.
Linda offers classes with the School at the Space for Conscious Living on The Divine Feminine; Writing as a Spiritual Discipline; and The Effect of Patriarchy on our Spiritual Growth, and Racial Justice and the Spiritual Journey. Black Angels, her novel about three children in the Civil War was the “Okra Pick” for 2009 Annual Conference of South Carolina Independent Booksellers and was named one of the best books of 2009 by the Chicago Public Libraries.
She designed and led a Civil Rights Pilgrimage sponsored by Holy Trinity Episcopal Church in 2018 and again in 2020. Linda is currently working on a memoir entitled: Under the Crabapple Tree: Seeking the Mystery. She has been a member of the Holy Trinity for thirty years.
