“It is true I was created in you. It is also true That you were created for me.” An extraordinary life is one that’s well lived. In Maya Angelou’s case, extraordinary only begins to describe it. She was a poet. A singer. A survivor. A director and screenwriter. An activist and scholar. She also happened to be one of the most significant autobiographical writers in American history, for shedding light into matters of race, alienation, and beauty in startling color. Her 1969 book “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings” gave color to a time that was split between black and white. Angelou didn’t just know why the caged bird sang, she had millions joining in the chorus. We have a new pullover hoody to celebrate a genuine groundbreaker and an American legend, Maya Angelou! ROF x Maya | Link in bio.
