Show transcript
'Still I Rise' was first published in 1978 in a collection of Angelou's poems entitled 'And Still I Rise'.
The collection 'And Still I Rise' explores ideas about overcoming adversity, particularly racism and sexism.
The poems celebrate the tenacity of the Black community, especially women ('Phenomenal Woman' is also in the collection)
Considering your personal preference to a poem is an important aspect of being a student of English.
