Maya Angelou

"...I myself am a victim of sexual assault...something I wrote about in ‘I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings...My family had the man arrested; the man was put in jail [for] one day and night and released...Some huge white policeman came three days later to my mother’s mother’s house and said the man was found dead, kicked to death." Quoting: Maya Angelou

On September 30th, Maya Angelou will speak out against sexual abuse at the Providence Performing Arts Center in Providence Rhode Island.
