Maya Angelou -"caged bird "-Assignment XI

As i read the poem i notice and was fascinating  in the way how Maya Angelou wrote all her feelings about life and the way she thought  it was. We know that Angelou was an civile rights activists and her poem was like expresing her thoughts her anger abou society , about the ways how black women were treated. . Even thought Africa American people were free at that time Angelou felt that their voice were not heard   because they were black. I liked a fraze at them poem: " the free bird thinks of another breeze..... (and ends with )" his wings are clipped and his feet are tied so he opens his throat to sing". The reason why i liked this stanza is because she describes herself  the way she wants to say things and to be free to choose what she wants to do but she can't  because she is black and the only thing how she can express herself is by rising her voice   and demanding  their rights.
