Dr. Maya Angelou
Dr. Angelou talks with several women from different ethnic backgrounds who say they've learned to embrace their love for America. An African-American woman who has traveled the world helping children in need talks about her journey of discovering love and loyalty for her country. Then, a Tahitian-American sent as a child to the United States for a better education talks with Dr. Angelou about finding pride in being both Tahitian and American. Plus, an Appalachian mother talks about the joy and challenge of the American experience while raising two biracial children in rural, southwestern Virginia.
