Still i rise has always been a poem that hold so much power especially for
me as a african american women. Its an inspiration that whatever i go
through i can overcome it,it makes me want to work when others have written
me to fail. Still i rise is a gesture saying to those who assume and dare
me to fail that no matter what live throws at me i will stand because i am
strong willing and able

This poem provides everyone with inspiration, and its been written from the
heart. 'Still I Rise' displays confidence and pride in the sense that she
will never accept defeat.

Maya is simply wonderful. She expresses her feelings so powerfully in this
poem. The human spirit can overcome all adversities AND RISE if one is
totally committed and determined to achieve that end. Thank you, Maya.

Maya Angelou is one of the BEST authors that I have come across. We took
her up in class several times. She's truly a phenomenal woman.

This poem was just what the women of the african culture needed. It is
very motivational, it inspired me to never let anyone walk over me or make
me feel as though I am any less than anyone else. It has taught me to
secure with myself and to always set and achieve my goals. It was
absolutely phenominal!!!!

When I began to read the poem, it made me think she was speaking to some
slug of a man. Bitter lovers. It was quite a turn in my brain, when her
true meaning came through.
What a fine poem

The first time I heard it was in my English class and it really made feel
better because I was going through a tugh situation, after that I started
to look for this poem until I found it. And now everytime I feel down I
read this poem
