Triggered. I have no believe in the spiritual realm and I pity those who think they are being looked after by a higher power. I will never be able to stomach that an “almighty” god can watch Maya and MILLIONS of others be sexually abused (Maya was only eight years old!) and do nothing. NOTHING! What a fucking nightmare! Almighty? Hell NO!

I wanted to finish this autobiography by February 29th in celebration of Black History Month but I couldn't -- which actually testifies to how intense the book actually is. It's not very long but every scene is heavy on my heart. This is NOT something I could have powered through, it's simply not that type of book. I've needed to put it aside three times just to come back to baseline.

I want to finish this for Black History Month! I listen to audiobooks mostly but I wanted to READ this in print so it’s taking a bit longer to settle down into it. Angelou is incredible with words and descriptions, I can picture everything she’s saying. I can also relate being black myself, things were horrible then. It’s important for me not to forget.
