The Legendary Dr. Maya Angelou

I am so excited! I got a ticket to see Dr. Maya Angelou. She's coming to speak at Unity Houston  in March. She is one of the most renowned and influential voices of our time. Hailed as a global renaissance woman, she is a celebrated poet, memoirist, novelist, educator, dramatist, producer, actress, historian, filmmaker, and civil rights activist. She will be talking about her upbringing in life, the importance of having courage and the importance of literacy. What an inspiration!

Here is a video clip when she was on Oprah. It affects me deeply each time I watch it. Being an empath, I can feel the love and gratitude she is feeling as she speaks and I cry every time no matter how many times I see it. She's so inspiring.

Tickets just recently went on sale to the public. The VIP tickets were already sold out and I'm sure they will sell out of general admission too. To get a ticket, click here.

3/19/14 Update: I'm sorry to say Dr. Angelou had to cancel her appearance due to an illness. She's sorry she couldn't make it but was instructed not to travel. Maybe we can see her another time.

5/30/14 Update: I'm sorry to say that Maya Angelou made her transition on May 28, 2014. Though I didn't get a chance to see her in person, I will cherish this particular video clip that touched me so deeply. Thanks for all you gave to us Maya!
