If you must use Google, you can be rid of their insane 'doodles' forever with Adblock Plus. Add these strings to the custom filter list:

Google can find the initiative and desire to promote the 90th birthday of a poet, but not a single word when it comes to the resurrection of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. Nothing in remembrance or respect to millions of Christians on one of the most significant days. Nothing.

Said differently - google finds it more important to celebrate the birth of a mediocre poet than the eternal salvation of us all.

It takes a village of idiots to think Angelou’s drivel is creative, but there is a village just like that. Aside from Alicia Keyes, who strikes me as someone I’d like to know, these phony enablers should be drowned in oatmeal.

Maya Angelou has to be the quintessential example of promoting race over ability.

Ridiculous.

Maya Angelou was a top notch poet—in the opinion of many, many people...

This is an interesting article about Nora Dunn’s refusal
to appear on SNL the night Andrew Dice Clay was the host.

Is she the one who said she wrote “I Know Why The Dead Bird Stinks” because she liked chemistry in high school?

Her office at Wake Forest University was an answering machine hooked-up in a broom closet. She drew a full professor’s salary but rarely set foot on campus.

“‘Still I Rise’ but nothing for “He is Risen”.“

Well put. Maybe “Still I Rise” is about aborted black babies?
