The C.​O.​W.​S. Dr. Maya Angelou's A Song Flung Up To Heaven Part 2 #MadDog2020 #WattsRiot

from The C.O.W.S.

The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. hosts the 2nd study session on the late Dr. Maya Angelou's A Song Flung Up To Heaven. This is the 6th autobiography in her 7 book memoir series. We read books 1, I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings, and 4, The Heart of a Woman. Dr. Angelou now reigns as the only author to have three books read on the Katherine Massey Book Club. We're reading this book to hear Dr. Angelou's depiction of the assassinations of Minister Malcolm X and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Last week, we heard Dr. Angelou scrutinize the grammar of black Fillmore District residents following the murder of Malcolm X. Black people didn't riot and barely broke stride from our usual niggerized routines of drinking booze and name-calling black people. Feeling low, she jetted off to Hawaii with her sorrows. Importantly, Dr. Angelou mentions the lasting importance of the 1955 Montgomery Bus Boycott, which vaulted Dr. King to prominence and made Rosa Parks a household name. Pathetically, she lists the date the boycott as 1958 - which is 2 years after its conclusion. This sort of sloppiness is becoming a trend in Dr. Angelou's non-fiction and more broadly when many White and non-white people speak to an audience of black people and/or discuss events involving black people with a flagrant disregard for accuracy. #SNL50 #SoundtrackToACoupdÉtat #TheCOWS16Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE: 564943#
