Years later, when I was married, I wanted to have more children, but I couldn’t conceive. Isn’t it wonderful that I had a child at 16? Praise God!”

Amazing. My mother had the same experience.

Ping!

This story is a bit misleading, imho.

Thanks for posting this.

Wow. I like her now. I hope this is a big part of the inevitable parade of people celebrating her life. I’m pretty sure it won’t be but I can hope.

This is very sweet. I had no idea, thanks for posting.

Me, blah, blah, me, blah blah blah, and then again, me. She was on par with the known domestic terrorist Bill Ayers. Google him and have a barf bag handy. Google her and be prepared to pass out.

What a beautiful testimony. It has changed my opinion of her. Thanks for posting.

met her in Winston at my old job. She needed a video made and my employer did the filming, editing, etc. I was the lowly secretary that delivered her lunch, messages, etc.

She spent several days at our studio with Oprah’s boyfriend, Stedman. She was famous for a quote that went something like “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” She learned that from practice.

Other than that experience, I had never met anyone so uppity and entitled. And I am 54 years old. Not a humble bone in her body. Maybe she hated me because I was WHITE...not rich...whatever. She was a hateful woman to those she considered beneath her...or those she imagined as the spawn of her oppressors.

Regardless, condolences to her family.

The femiNazis are going to go apple-shiite over this story.

A certifiable leftist and Barakko-wacko with at least 6, count 'em, 6 autobiographies. A narcissist in the image of der leader.

Do we really celebrate someone who keeps her fetus? Crazy.

[ZULU]

Sorry. Don’t like the woman - at all.

Big time Leftie who wrote 2nd-rate verse.

I’m really gonna miss that pretentious 3rd-rate poetry./s

OK but....I just read that she was thrilled with Obama and desperately wanted him to have a 2nd term.

She wanted a liberal Supreme Court, my definition of pro life she does not fit

Did she ever weep for the unborn to the point of pleading with people to vote for pro life candidates? I see no evidence of this

Glad she did not kill her own child

God Bless her

And she thinks Mrs Obama is great??? I have no respect for folks that are not pro life period

I would not attend a Church that did not feel the same as myself on this

Yes I hope she was saved

Ms Angelou might have kept her baby, but she championed a woman's right to choose and gay marriage. She hated America and moved to Africa only to return when convinced by Malcolm X. She was a strong supporter of Fidel Castro.
