Referred to as a “redwood tree, with deep roots in American culture,” Maya Angelou gave people the freedom to think about their history in a way they never had before. Dr. Angelou's was a prolific life; as a singer, dancer, activist, poet, and writer, she inspired generations with lyrical modern African-American thought that pushed boundaries.
Maya Angelou: And Still I Rise is the first feature-length documentary on Dr. Angelou, and weaves her words with rare and intimate archival photographs and videos, telling hidden stories of her exuberant life during some of America's most defining moments. Join us for a special preview of this new film, opened with a reading by the Alliance Theatre's Playwright in Residence Pearl Cleage and special dance performance by Moving in the Spirit.
