That's right: the woman who recited the Presidential Inauguration Poem is wearing a plunge-cut dress in the photo above. Even though she is + 80 years old in the photo.
If that is not a most stellar example of the much-discussed average higher self esteem recorded among American Blacks, then I don't know what is.
Wouldn't you think that her publicist would say something like: "Miss Angelou, that revealing dress might be a little inappropriate for you to wear at this event. You are, after all, 86 years old!"
*sigh*
Here's Angelou's "Dust" poem, the stuff of legends :
Still I Rise
You may write me down in history With your bitter, twisted lies, You may trod me in the very dirt But still, like dust, I’ll rise. Does my sassiness upset you? Why are you beset with gloom? ‘Cause I walk like I’ve got oil wells Pumping in my living room. Just like moons and like suns, With the certainty of tides, Just like hopes springing high, Still I’ll rise. Did you want to see me broken? Bowed head and lowered eyes? Shoulders falling down like teardrops, Weakened by my soulful cries? Does my haughtiness offend you? Don’t you take it awful hard ‘Cause I laugh like I’ve got gold mines Diggin’ in my own backyard. You may shoot me with your words, You may cut me with your eyes, You may kill me with your hatefulness, But still, like air, I’ll rise. Does my sexiness upset you? Does it come as a surprise That I dance like I’ve got diamonds At the meeting of my thighs? Out of the huts of history’s shame I rise Up from a past that’s rooted in pain I rise I’m a black ocean, leaping and wide, Welling and swelling I bear in the tide. Leaving behind nights of terror and fear I rise Into a daybreak that’s wondrously clear I rise Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave, I am the dream and the hope of the slave. I rise I rise I rise.
Wow.
This makes Michelle Obama look almost reasonable.

A Leftist/Liberal self-absorbed, sanctimonious, flatulent, new age, race-baiting, talk-show whore, self-help pimp, intellectually bankrupt, emotional drama queen, con-artist and windbag has left the room.
Thank Christ.
Unfortunately there will be a republication of all her books and her vomitous, "oh please stop it my ears hurt", rambling "isms" will be regurgitated across the complete spectrum of Leftist/Liberal mass media.
Oprah, in an act of great personal sacrifice and mourning, will swear off Krispy Kreme and KFC for a month. (Ms. Oprah's frequent relapses in this period of rigorous mourning will be fodder for several tell-all books and a movie-of-the-week)
Dr. Phil will be joined by the enormous Joy Behar and the rest of the morally bankrupt, dimensionally challenged cast of The View for a heart (gut) wrenching outpouring of emotion, tears and snot-filled hankies as they recount the "good times" and the deep, deep, profound impact Saint Angelou had on a deeply troubled and racist, narrow minded, bigoted, right-wing, gun loving, homophobic, White Privileged, Cisexist, sexist, anti-LBGQUTRECE, Islamophobic America.
Carpet-munchers, Fudgepackers and a wide range of other half-wits, sexual deviants and brightly coloured human tassels in the Leftist Lunatic Fringe will petition the White House for the implementation of a national holiday in honour of Saint Maya.
Yanni will pound out a commemorative album which will also serve in local hospitals as a back-up should stocks of Ipecac run low.
First Lady Moochelle Obama will craft another of her world famous handwritten hashtag motivating signs.
Starbucks will trot out a limited edition "Maya Herb Tea" in a gift pack format complete with a box of refreshing rose scented "Big Woman" vaginal wipes and a commemorative nasal cleansing Neti-Pot, ( handsomely embossed with a rare "Angelou-ism" )
There's so much more I could do with this, but I am weary so I'll just leave it there.
I ponder, misty eyed Maya once took an oath of silence for 5 blissfully quiet years.....why in the name of Christ could she not have endeavored to make that a life-long affair?
Have a good one Maya, you're God's problem now.

PS,
Let’s have no illusions about Maya Angelou the hardened Leftist.
Marguerite Ann Johnson, aka “Maya Angelou,” besides being an overrated hack writer, was a racist, devout communist, America-hater, a promoter of a wide range of perversion and sexual deviancy, an admirer of the Leftist butcher Che Guevara, a close friend of Malcolm X, and a strong supporter of Castro.
Brainless radical leftist academics who dominate North American education force children to read this talentless race baiter, who was a stripper, madam (pimp) and a prostitute.
She left the country to live in Africa and came back only to help Malcolm X build the Nation of Islam. She made an appearance at every violent, far-left, radical event, spoke at the racist bigot Louis Farrakhan’s 1995 Million Man March, and tried to get cop-killing Muslim Mumia Abu-Jamal released from prison.
A devout supporter of, and apologist for, Islam, in any form and in any function, she insisted to her death that Islam had nothing to do with 9/11 or terrorists.
As far as her “poetry” is concerned; Angelou is not a poet, not even a minor one and to assert that spits in the faces of the Kipling's, Tennyson's and Frost's of the literary world. Angelou was vulgar, crude, superficial and talentless and stands among such poetic greats as ghetto graffiti and that filthy little homosexual reptile Allen Ginsberg.
I don't know what Rudyard Kipling would say about this black retard Angelou, but I do know what anonymous here has to say about Angelou and it sounds right to me.
