I wish I knew how to help heal these wounds (that sounds so trite in my head, but I see they are wounds). I'm a veteran with my own wounds, you just can't see them. But these are far more real. I feel like I've had it easy, despite all the crap I go through every day. The only thing I can think of doing is helping folks in my community that needs it, marching with those who deserve it. Does me marching make a difference?I hope so. My family is terrified when I go, but I don't know what else to do. Her grace and strength isn't something I deserve. She was never a popular author in my schools, but her stories, and James Baldwin's, and Huey P, and Angela Davis, were by my classmates. Definitely eye opening, when I'd never really read anything like them until I was in undergrad. It feels horrible, like it's something I should have done a long time ago, and it's my fault. I'm so glad this was shared, it wasn't something I'd heard before. I felt ashamed. I don't know if I should have, but I did. I could tell it wasn't just a poem, but her story, or at least part of it. I hear the anguish. I'm scared I haven't really learned the lesson, like maybe I'm living vicariously. I've never really been a guy of faith, but this made me think religion doesn't matter; it's faith you have to have just things will get better. I just wish I knew how to get there.
@@Justone177 Thomas, I love that you lay your self bare in your comment. Can I suggest you don't minimize your own "wounds" as you call it. It is just as important to heal from those even as you participate in helping to heal our country. Even after marching and learning, sometimes we lay down and still have to face our own monsters. Please take care of yourself especially now.
@@akatobi2002 Thanks for the words of encouragement. I've got a long way to go for my own health, but I was very lucky to have such a diverse group of people to serve with, good and bad. It was actually an old supervisor who recommended books by James Baldwin, and when I watched his debate at Cambridge Union (many years later, don't ask, I'll lie), it was far more impactful. I hope I can learn better. Grew up very sheltered, and dealt with a lot of crap from family when I enlisted. But, with the friends I've got, it's getting better. Don't really feel like I laid myself bare, but just wanted to demonstrate even the normal person is pretty ignorant, even if it's a product of their own society.
It is so true. They wonder how some of us can just keep going. It’s a survival skill. If I said what I really think it would be way too much for them to handle. So I too stretch my lips and make a sound that is interpreted by those who don’t really know as a smile and as laughter.
I cry everytime i hear this poetry....a description of how many of us survive this disrespectful World. A little showing of the teeth and a flat laugh.
This woman changed my view on literature during the end of my school days. I went from the edge of failure and not attending lessons to getting a B in the final tests. My teacher loved Maya Angelou and taught her words with all the passion and emotional she could, she believed in the beauty of the words Maya Angelou spoke. She's motivated me to start writing myself and I will be uploading these on my channel. I may not be able to speak words like Maya Angelou but there's an unbelievable sense of fulfilment in expressing yourself in writing. I hope she can rest knowing how many people she has inspired and gave meaning into their lives.

@@deborahvictoriaedwards5188 We are discussing being black right now. Not "Everyone". Why when Jewish or anyone else speaks of their suffering no one comes along and says "everyone" suffers??? Stop doing that. It's not right. Black people are no longer allowing anyone to shut us up, hold us down, give us anything. We are saying what's in our hearts with NO apologies or anyone's approval. That time of evil silence and imprisonment of our human rights to what others think we should have is dead and gone. Never to be seen or heard of again. No more status quo. No more.

Maya Angelou, and black people worldwide. This burden and baggage and performance you have to display and carry, I'm disturbed. I'm a white girl from Sweden, and my understanding of all this can only go so surface-level. I cry with Maya in her understanding and her witnessing of the world, what she and people now still have to endure. Especially in these times, where power and racism go hand in hand... I cannot say too much, as I have less to say than someone who relates. I only heard this today, but it is eye-opening.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts sincerely. You’re an example of what’s beautiful in all races, the ability to try and understand one another with empathy. God bless and keep you always.
Dearest Maya-I spent a year reading every book you wrote. I learned so much from your storytelling. You embraced each decade of your life so fully. You shared the insights gained, you embraced an artful life, you healed from your deep wounds as you lived WITH those wounds. You extended such grace to others. Thank you for daring to tell the stories. Still, we rise!
'They kept my race alive by wearing a mask'. I don't know why am crying 😭 listening to that line. thank you my ancestors thanks you for letting my parents having this beautiful proud black girl that's me thank you

@@Paul-ek5lu I get the gist of what you are saying. But the truth is there is a great separation of who really are the children of God. From Matthew 25:31-46: "But when the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory. Before him all the nations will be gathered, and he will separatethem one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheepfrom the goats. God Himself will separate His true children from the rest.
then you have not understood them. She is over the world's bs and she is over racial inequality by her wisdom. It is all so pathetic she can only laugh. Only laugh but why, because it is so ridiculous it seems unreal , because laughing is genius but when your stomach akes of laughter u can only realise that u have no control over all the injustice, u cry. Smile to all the racists and sing because that is who you are, and that does not hurt, it saddens and open conciousness without giving up the singing and the wiseness.

I experienced the honor to have met this Extraordinary Divine Feminine Energy when I was 12yrs old and she came to speak at my middle school in Berkeley California. I cleverly ask to be excused to the restroom at the time she was due to arrive. I waited for her out front and she pulled up in a Volvo and politely asked me "is there a good place to park around here?" I told her "You are the Queen of Quill"! "I was hoping to meet you one day!...and that royalty such as yourself get VIP parking on the campus!" She and I walked and talked in the courtyard for what seemed like Forever and the Wisdom She gave me I will Always Cherish! Love her and her son for being a dedicated mentor to my daughter's high school english class. Thank You for your Template of Energies! A True Legendary Human

I first read this poem at secondary school, age 13 and it resonated with me then because it reminded me of my mother, grandmother and grandfather all arriving home from various jobs, multiple jobs, and when you asked them about how their day went, they’d turn horrible stories of the racism they’d faced into funny anecdotes that would have my sisters and I laughing. They were the Windrush generation, and they made me so proud. I’m glad to say, I remember Miss Maya’s poem word for word to this day.
Thank you Sasha! Often when there are stories about racism/white supremacist culture of the US some white person from Britain will comment "that does not happen in the UK." I take the opportunity to remind anyone who does that, about the racist mistreatment of the Windrush Generation, about the racist murder of Stephen Lawrence and the Brixton "Riots."
I'm not going to pretend that I have ever known the struggles that each and every person of color has been through in this country, but I can say I have never heard poetry so honest and beautiful in my many years on this earth. My daughter and I were discussing just yesterday about how hard it must be to just raise a black son in this world, and we talked about how they have to be taught a completely different life than we have to teach our children. I have never been ashamed of my race until the last 20 years or so, but what I saw, what broke me was watching a man who knew he was about to die call for his mother (who I understand now has passed) as he was slowly murdered for 8:46 and the murderer just sat there as casually as if he were reading a book. Why can't people understand that we are ALL human, it doesn't matter what shade your skin is, we are ALL human. Maybe if this poetry was taught to ALL more of us would understand. I want it made very clear; I am a Christian, middle aged white woman from the south, but I will NOT stand by and watch this happen again! I have a 6 month old granddaughter and I want this world to be a better place for her and every child no matter what color their skin is! I have shed many tears since this began and what I realized is that I had no idea how many tears have been shed from a community that has seen this happen over and over... I will end with this; I want every person of color to know that not all white people are like that filthy piece of trash that I watched kill a man, and there's a lot of us who will back you 110% and I am sorry that you have had to wear this mask for so long. May God bless you and keep you, I end with nothing but love and respect for each of you!
Tammy you are doing one of the best things you could ever do. Teaching your young truth and the reality of racism and the devastating toll it takes. Keep spreading Gods love. Stay blessed
Thank you for expressing this!! We need your support. When people think this is a "black problem" they basically ignore it but, when every one comes together in support people start to see it as a problem that affects everyone and since many white people are in control of the system...they are the ones who are needed to make a change, to feel it, to come together in a lasting way. This isn't over when the news stops reporting on it, it has to be a day in day out fight with thoughts, prayers, actions, and efforts. It has to become a LIFESTYLE of love for each other.
My folks can make me split my side, I laughed so hard I nearly died, The tales they tell, sound just like lying, They grow the fruit, But eat the rind . . I cried. . how many people of this world deprived of the fruits of their own labor, how many. . Yet forth from the seeds of their toil will come an orchard of the richest fruit. . But we must endeavor to grow it together.

@@adrianoconnor3020 Mr. O'Connor, with respect, "passionate delivery," "talent" and "Performance" are descriptions of your admiration of an external, analysis, and diminishing of what we witnessed. What was witnessed is in these moments very real. It is lived! It is experienced, although in a different era, it is not contrived in any way for Ms. Angelou it so personal it is re-lived each time it is told, it is felt. Not only by her, but by those in our skin who have and do at times still wear a mask. Please, when you share this with your students do not refer to it as a "passionate delivery, talent or a performance"... Please do not. It is more than a secular study.

Her inflection is amazing. You can’t read this poem the way you experience to watch and hear this. This is what let’s me know God exists. Bc technology can be such a force of evil I think how could He exist amongst such rubbish and then I watch this piece of art that will live forever longer than myself to teach many more than myself what this woman put into the universe the WAY she meant it.

@@pastorjim986 you are a liar, pastor Jim. This verbatim reply is on many of these comments. Shame on you. Telling people to "call this number", "tell them I sent you". People come here to celebrate Maya Angelous' life, not to be scammed by someone like you. You disgust me.

What an extraordinary reading. I've never seen so much emotion, so much painful truth spoken with such strength until the end. I've learned a lot about black history (unfortunately nothing before the colonial period), but I've never heard it spoken in words that so quickly pushed me to tears, never heard it screamed through a joyless smile so loudly and clearly. Absolutely stunned.
Oh my GOD...WOW the power of poetry and words. Maya was profoundly excellent. More books more books more books. RIP Maya Angelou until our day is called.

Her poetry is moving and powerful. She speaks to every person who wears a mask, and to all ancestors who had to wear it for our survival. Its a universal human theme.
"I'm too proud to bend and too poor to break, so I laugh" 😭🔥
Deep
Yes indeed we have to work with the same meaning in healthcare too
Wonderful lady
FOESHOW
that was one of the best lines i've ever heard
I could hear it in her voice and see it on her face that she was going to cry. It's our ancestors, it's our history, it's our truth
I wish I knew how to help heal these wounds (that sounds so trite in my head, but I see they are wounds). I'm a veteran with my own wounds, you just can't see them. But these are far more real. I feel like I've had it easy, despite all the crap I go through every day.
The only thing I can think of doing is helping folks in my community that needs it, marching with those who deserve it. Does me marching make a difference?I hope so. My family is terrified when I go, but I don't know what else to do.
Her grace and strength isn't something I deserve. She was never a popular author in my schools, but her stories, and James Baldwin's, and Huey P, and Angela Davis, were by my classmates. Definitely eye opening, when I'd never really read anything like them until I was in undergrad. It feels horrible, like it's something I should have done a long time ago, and it's my fault.
I'm so glad this was shared, it wasn't something I'd heard before. I felt ashamed. I don't know if I should have, but I did. I could tell it wasn't just a poem, but her story, or at least part of it. I hear the anguish.
I'm scared I haven't really learned the lesson, like maybe I'm living vicariously. I've never really been a guy of faith, but this made me think religion doesn't matter; it's faith you have to have just things will get better. I just wish I knew how to get there.
@@Justone177 Thomas, I love that you lay your self bare in your comment. Can I suggest you don't minimize your own "wounds" as you call it. It is just as important to heal from those even as you participate in helping to heal our country.
Even after marching and learning, sometimes we lay down and still have to face our own monsters. Please take care of yourself especially now.
@@akatobi2002 Thanks for the words of encouragement. I've got a long way to go for my own health, but I was very lucky to have such a diverse group of people to serve with, good and bad. It was actually an old supervisor who recommended books by James Baldwin, and when I watched his debate at Cambridge Union (many years later, don't ask, I'll lie), it was far more impactful.
I hope I can learn better. Grew up very sheltered, and dealt with a lot of crap from family when I enlisted. But, with the friends I've got, it's getting better. Don't really feel like I laid myself bare, but just wanted to demonstrate even the normal person is pretty ignorant, even if it's a product of their own society.
@MeMyselfI ALWAYS Oh my, such beautiful soul. Beautiful words. Thank you!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽💟💟
Yes she shead some tears at the end.
One of the most extraordinary women to walk this earth.
Amen...
Tanya Pineda (people) to walk this earth
All women who walk the earth are extraordinary... Maya knew it to be true within herself
Phenomenal woman
Maybe not so very true she certainly was

Rewatching it for 20th time this year❤
This is more relevant now than ever.
Facts
It is so true. They wonder how some of us can just keep going. It’s a survival skill. If I said what I really think it would be way too much for them to handle. So I too stretch my lips and make a sound that is interpreted by those who don’t really know as a smile and as laughter.
It never stopped being relevant.
So powerful 🤟
Truth
It rarely gets deeper than this. This breaks me every. single. time.
So true! It does the same for me as well😢
SAME 😢😭😭😭
@S B 😿😿
Agreed 😞
She was so full of empathy, she gave it to us and made all of us empathise. Truly and devinely awesome Ms Angelou 💜
When she laughs at the end then sheds tears
"THAT'S CALLED PAIN"
Haunting. Years of frustration, hurt and disappointment. Emotional slavery...😪
That's heavy & so so true about the mask.
The mask collapse at the end ! Great ! Very great !
This breaks you .the truth is all too real .
i love that she honored the woman's "survival apparatus" instead of thinking of her as strange and pathologizing her
I cry everytime i hear this poetry....a description of how many of us survive this disrespectful World. A little showing of the teeth and a flat laugh.
I do, too.
Yep my god. How crazy. You have to live it to believe. Those of us who are conscious are suffering even more.
:( I'm sorry to hear that
@@lalouloune6156 😔😥🙏
I didnt know why I did this but im here now understanding my actions.
Literally every professional black person in corporate America
Yup.
Exactly
And corporate Britain.
So So True 🙏
My god yes. Powerful!
“they kept my race alive by wearing the mask”
the words have come true this day....we wear the mask
This woman changed my view on literature during the end of my school days. I went from the edge of failure and not attending lessons to getting a B in the final tests. My teacher loved Maya Angelou and taught her words with all the passion and emotional she could, she believed in the beauty of the words Maya Angelou spoke. She's motivated me to start writing myself and I will be uploading these on my channel. I may not be able to speak words like Maya Angelou but there's an unbelievable sense of fulfilment in expressing yourself in writing. I hope she can rest knowing how many people she has inspired and gave meaning into their lives.
Ditto,keep writinng,keep speaking.Your voice is important

@@deborahvictoriaedwards5188 We are discussing being black right now. Not "Everyone". Why when Jewish or anyone else speaks of their suffering no one comes along and says "everyone" suffers??? Stop doing that. It's not right. Black people are no longer allowing anyone to shut us up, hold us down, give us anything. We are saying what's in our hearts with NO apologies or anyone's approval. That time of evil silence and imprisonment of our human rights to what others think we should have is dead and gone. Never to be seen or heard of again. No more status quo. No more.

Maya Angelou, and black people worldwide. This burden and baggage and performance you have to display and carry, I'm disturbed. I'm a white girl from Sweden, and my understanding of all this can only go so surface-level. I cry with Maya in her understanding and her witnessing of the world, what she and people now still have to endure. Especially in these times, where power and racism go hand in hand... I cannot say too much, as I have less to say than someone who relates. I only heard this today, but it is eye-opening.
Thank you for allowing her word open your eyes.
Thanks for being open
Thank you.
Beautifully said honey.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts sincerely. You’re an example of what’s beautiful in all races, the ability to try and understand one another with empathy. God bless and keep you always.
Dearest Maya-I spent a year reading every book you wrote. I learned so much from your storytelling. You embraced each decade of your life so fully. You shared the insights gained, you embraced an artful life, you healed from your deep wounds as you lived WITH those wounds. You extended such grace to others. Thank you for daring to tell the stories. Still, we rise!
Ase Hotep Amen-Ra Mmhm XBLVCKLY
I would like to read Maya's work. To start me of, is there anything you can recommend? Thanks in advance :)
@Humbly Bless, I would begin with her first autobiography, “I know why the caged bird sings”.
Wow.. Read them 10 times over
WOW.
STILL.
Relevant.

We could use Miss Maya Angelou' s wisdom now more than ever.

Being black is hard but we harder... God's children will one day rise and take what belongs to them
God's children are all humans of the earth. Some more blessed than others granted
@@Paul-ek5lu I get the gist of what you are saying. But the truth is there is a great separation of who really are the children of God. From Matthew 25:31-46: "But when the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory. Before him all the nations will be gathered, and he will separatethem one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheepfrom the goats. God Himself will separate His true children from the rest.
And what is that?
A writer who breathes life into every word. Eternally in awe of this woman🥺
She spoke with emotion. She told the story through her. I could see it in her eyes.
Her words are so real & true that they hurt.
then you have not understood them. She is over the world's bs and she is over racial inequality by her wisdom. It is all so pathetic she can only laugh. Only laugh but why, because it is so ridiculous it seems unreal , because laughing is genius but when your stomach akes of laughter u can only realise that u have no control over all the injustice, u cry. Smile to all the racists and sing because that is who you are, and that does not hurt, it saddens and open conciousness without giving up the singing and the wiseness.

I experienced the honor to have met this Extraordinary Divine Feminine Energy when I was 12yrs old and she came to speak at my middle school in Berkeley California. I cleverly ask to be excused to the restroom at the time she was due to arrive. I waited for her out front and she pulled up in a Volvo and politely asked me "is there a good place to park around here?"
I told her "You are the Queen of Quill"! "I was hoping to meet you one day!...and that royalty such as yourself get VIP parking on the campus!"
She and I walked and talked in the courtyard for what seemed like Forever and the Wisdom She gave me I will Always Cherish!
Love her and her son for being a dedicated mentor to my daughter's high school english class.
Thank You for your Template of Energies!

Amazing!
I first read this poem at secondary school, age 13 and it resonated with me then because it reminded me of my mother, grandmother and grandfather all arriving home from various jobs, multiple jobs, and when you asked them about how their day went, they’d turn horrible stories of the racism they’d faced into funny anecdotes that would have my sisters and I laughing. They were the Windrush generation, and they made me so proud. I’m glad to say, I remember Miss Maya’s poem word for word to this day.
Greatful indeed
Thank you Sasha! Often when there are stories about racism/white supremacist culture of the US some white person from Britain will comment "that does not happen in the UK." I take the opportunity to remind anyone who does that, about the racist mistreatment of the Windrush Generation, about the racist murder of Stephen Lawrence and the Brixton "Riots."
I'm not going to pretend that I have ever known the struggles that each and every person of color has been through in this country, but I can say I have never heard poetry so honest and beautiful in my many years on this earth. My daughter and I were discussing just yesterday about how hard it must be to just raise a black son in this world, and we talked about how they have to be taught a completely different life than we have to teach our children. I have never been ashamed of my race until the last 20 years or so, but what I saw, what broke me was watching a man who knew he was about to die call for his mother (who I understand now has passed) as he was slowly murdered for 8:46 and the murderer just sat there as casually as if he were reading a book. Why can't people understand that we are ALL human, it doesn't matter what shade your skin is, we are ALL human. Maybe if this poetry was taught to ALL more of us would understand. I want it made very clear; I am a Christian, middle aged white woman from the south, but I will NOT stand by and watch this happen again! I have a 6 month old granddaughter and I want this world to be a better place for her and every child no matter what color their skin is! I have shed many tears since this began and what I realized is that I had no idea how many tears have been shed from a community that has seen this happen over and over... I will end with this; I want every person of color to know that not all white people are like that filthy piece of trash that I watched kill a man, and there's a lot of us who will back you 110% and I am sorry that you have had to wear this mask for so long. May God bless you and keep you, I end with nothing but love and respect for each of you!
Tammy you are doing one of the best things you could ever do. Teaching your young truth and the reality of racism and the devastating toll it takes. Keep spreading Gods love. Stay blessed
God bless you, let's stay in prayer for everyone❣
Tammy Lockley, thank you....
Thank you for expressing this!! We need your support. When people think this is a "black problem" they basically ignore it but, when every one comes together in support people start to see it as a problem that affects everyone and since many white people are in control of the system...they are the ones who are needed to make a change, to feel it, to come together in a lasting way. This isn't over when the news stops reporting on it, it has to be a day in day out fight with thoughts, prayers, actions, and efforts. It has to become a LIFESTYLE of love for each other.
Tammy yes you said it all🙏🙏🙏
My folks can make me split my side,
I laughed so hard I nearly died,
The tales they tell, sound just like lying,
They grow the fruit,
But eat the rind . .
I cried. . how many people of this world deprived of the fruits of their own labor, how many. . Yet forth from the seeds of their toil will come an orchard of the richest fruit. . But we must endeavor to grow it together.
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽❣️❣️❣️
I felt that line
Yes, I concur👊🏽
God says the last will become the first!! One day! 🙏
Well done!👏👏👏👍👍👍

@@adrianoconnor3020 Mr. O'Connor, with respect, "passionate delivery," "talent" and "Performance" are descriptions of your admiration of an external, analysis, and diminishing of what we witnessed. What was witnessed is in these moments very real. It is lived! It is experienced, although in a different era, it is not contrived in any way for Ms. Angelou it so personal it is re-lived each time it is told, it is felt. Not only by her, but by those in our skin who have and do at times still wear a mask. Please, when you share this with your students do not refer to it as a "passionate delivery, talent or a performance"... Please do not. It is more than a secular study. Perhaps that is not what you meant, but it is the sentiment your words convey.

Her inflection is amazing. You can’t read this poem the way you experience to watch and hear this. This is what let’s me know God exists. Bc technology can be such a force of evil I think how could He exist amongst such rubbish and then I watch this piece of art that will live forever longer than myself to teach many more than myself what this woman put into the universe the WAY she meant it. I wouldn’t have understood nor felt it without the sound of her voice and the movement of her body.

@@pastorjim986 you are a liar, pastor Jim. This verbatim reply is on many of these comments. Shame on you. Telling people to "call this number", "tell them I sent you". People come here to celebrate Maya Angelous' life, not to be scammed by someone like you. You disgust me.
This breaks anyone in half. Amazing interpretation

Willingly confused and clinging each to their own excuse.

God has already blesses her!!!

She was just simply the best!!!
This is why I hate when people say "We ain't our grandparents" -- so disrespectful of their plight.
We say that because we are tryin to take this fight to another level! Not to be disrespectful!
Your words so poignant, relevant and resonate today, We salute and miss you very much Ms Maya Angelo

I love Mya Angelou she was beautiful and her words spoken was perfect. She will forever be remembered as the woman of words such grace she had
"I laughed until I started to cry". That hit me like a lightning bolt.😢😢😢
A national treasure indeed! You belong to the ages now dear Maya. R.I.P.
What an extraordinary reading. I've never seen so much emotion, so much painful truth spoken with such strength until the end. I've learned a lot about black history (unfortunately nothing before the colonial period), but I've never heard it spoken in words that so quickly pushed me to tears, never heard it screamed through a joyless smile so loudly and clearly. Absolutely stunned.
Oh my GOD...WOW the power of poetry and words. Maya was profoundly excellent. More books more books more books. RIP Maya Angelou until our day is called.
She was so gifted i love all her work. Hearing her perform this poem gave me an even greater understanding and love of it.

Her poetry is moving and powerful. She speaks to every person who wears a mask, and to all ancestors who had to wear it for our survival. Its a universal human theme.
