Gender and Racial Empowerment in Selected Works of Maya Angelou, 2019
Alsarhan, Jawaher
2010-2019
This study examines Maya Angelou as a powerful African-American woman in the twentieth century who impacted generations of African Americans. Her biographies and selected works speak strongly and wisely about gender and racial empowerment. This empowerment was sown in her childhood and could be traced throughout her life. It is also a fact that seldom does the realization of ones race and gender take place at such an early age as with Maya Angelou. She was highly marginalized not only in terms of gender but also in terms of race with acute consciousness. KEYWORDS: English Language and Literature, Other English Language and Literature
