Growing up in segregation and Southern humiliation, it is heartbreaking to read of how devalued she felt as a child and the ways in which Northern racism still existed, albeit more insidiously. I am grateful for her candid honesty and the wisdom she offers to anyone who will listen. A collection of short essays and anecdotes, poems and advise from this celebrated poet, author, singer, director and teacher, Letter to my Daughter by Maya Angelou is everything she would say to the daughter she never had, and as a result, to all the daughters in this world. ![]()
