The 1st time in high school for a literature and the second time a few years... I've been a Maya Angelou fan for years, ever since I read her memoir the first time in high school. Like you, I can't imagine why this book is banned, but then again I can't imaging why any book is banned!<br /><br />I saw Maya Angelou speak live twice... What an amazing experience! She was a wonderful speaker and would sing and recite poetry... I am glad that I was able to hear her speak.
