Civil Rights Activism, Harlem Writers, and Motherhood Amid the 1960s Revolution

Moving to New York in the late 1950s, Maya Angelou immersed herself in the Harlem Writers Guild, organized for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s SCLC, and forged deep bonds with Malcolm X. As the Civil Rights Movement reached a boiling point, Angelou balanced her public activism with raising her teenage son, Guy, before taking a transformative leap to Africa.

Her memoir captures a momentous historical era while exploring the tender, complex demands of art, activism, and single motherhood.

Why You’ll Love This Book
