Maya Angelou was a celebrated author and poet. We have included an extract of "caged bird" a poem that explores a longing for liberation. Angelou expresses her experience beautifully and her poetry and works are testaments to the power of language. #blackhistorymonth
The caged bird sings with a fearful trill of things unknown but longed for still and his tune is heard on the distant hill for the caged bird sings of freedom.
