Maya Angelou honoured with alluring Google Doodle

Published

on

Maya Angelou has been honoured by Google as official doodle for today, which could have been her 90th birthday.

In what can easily be described as a laudable effort, Google recruited a star studded cast, including Oprah WinfreyAlicia Keys, and Laverne Cox, to read Angelou’s famous poem “Still I Rise.”

When her doodle is clicked it leads to a page of the stars reading Angelou’s poem while illustrations fill the screen.

Others enlisted to read the poem include America Ferrera, Martina McBride, and Angelou’s son, Guy Johnson.

Speaking to Google about the poet, Oprah said:

Maya Angelou is not what she has done or written or spoken, it’s how she did it all. She moved through the world with unshakeable calm, confidence, and a fiery, fierce grace and abounding love.
