      This lady is pro-life explains how a child can be a blessing under any circumstance. Be brave, believe. Life's full of surprises!

      Nope. Not pro-life. She made a choice, and wanted others to make their choice. Lifelong fundraiser for PP, which by the way is not a provider of any abortion services.

    Dr. Angelou was an amazing person. I feel robbed for not being afforded the opportunity to have sat at her feet and be taught. I believe the world is better because she was here. Thank you ma'am.

      Interviews with such a magnificent personality; deserves the honor and justice of the interviewer, [at least having completed one of nine books] so as not appearing so out of touch - with the Black experience. There is no substitute for adequate preparation.

      Mavis was one of the best interviewers. Sadly her reputation was eclipsed by the male interviewers of the day - the Parkinsons, Hartys and Aspels - most of whom weren't anywhere near as adept as her at establishing an immediate atmospere of trust.

    Maya Angelou, a beautiful soul that spoke about the world she saw. Full of misunderstanding, fear, judgement, confusion, love, pain and hope. I hope for a world where your injustices are healed and we can live with peace and understanding.

    Maya Angelou is a magical being that has such a clear and painful view of life as it is. The interviewer is privileged just to have met such an incredible person. The woman (interviewer) is cold, unaware and arrogant asking such painful, personal questions so coarsely unaware of her privilege and power imbalance. Women need to support one another more. She deserved so much better. The interviewer is abrasive and unaware.

    "It's Maya not May I" ...boy, this interviewer sure did have a license to call her by her first name. Ms Maya would get very enraged if you called her by her first name, she would say : " You don't have a license to call me by my first name".
