Maya Angelou, rodným menom Marguerite Ann Johnson bola americká spisovateľka, poetka, scenáristka, filmová producentka a aktivistka.

Najslávnejšie sú jej autobiografické knihy, najmä prvá popisujúca neľahké detstvo a dospievanie černošského dievčaťa v časoch, keď nebolí pre čiernu menšinu vybojované základné práva: I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings z roku 1969. Literárna kritika knihu ocenila ako úplne novú formu autobiografickej beletrie. Bola spolupracovníčkou Martina Luthera Kinga i Malcolma X a bojovníčkou za práva žien. Bola považovaná za jednu z hovorcov černošskej komunity v USA. V roku 1993 recitovala svoju báseň pri prezidentskej inaugurácii Billa Clintona. Nadviazala tak na tradíciu Roberta Frosta, ktorý recitoval svoje verše pri inaugurácii Johna F. Kennedyho roku 1961. Wikipedia

Varianta: Prejudice is a burden that confuses the past, threatens the future and renders the present inaccessible.

“Until recently each generation found it more expedient to plead guilty to the charge of being young and ignorant, easier to take the punishment meted out by the older generation (which had itself confessed to the same crime short years before). The command to grow up at once was more bearable than the faceless horror of wavering purpose, which was youth.”
