Today I will be talking about a poem about civil rights. The poem’s name is the caged bird and the author is Maya Angelou. She was in the civil rights time and she was famous for making a poem it talks about her life in the civil rights. She also made poems to educate people to not be racist so that in the future people can live happily without civil rights. I will be talking about this poem and how it is structured so people always want to read it.
The poem’s message is to educate the people not to discriminate against people for their racism in this case it is the African American people. The caged bird is the African American they get abused and have to obey the civil rights rule and the free bird is the people that is being racist to the African American people. This means that African American people were in pain during the civil rights and Maya Angelou was making poems to feel better and telling her life stories in the poem so that one-day people can get educated not to discriminate against other people because of their race.
The reason why this poem was so popular was because she used lots of poetic devices. She used consonance metaphor repetition and personification. These poetic devices are important in a poem because these poetic devices make the poem interesting and people would want to read it. For example, in stanza 4 she used personification sighting tree which reflects the bird’s content. Another example is stanza 1 which she used consonance bird back wind dips wing dares. She was a professional at doing these poetic devices which is why her poem was so famous.
The civil rights time was very racist to people but now people have improved and evolved so nowadays people are not so racist anymore. But there are people that are still racist. The reason may be that they just dislike their kind or they have not been educated. That is right Maya Angelou wrote this poem to educate people so in the future people are not racist to other kinds. One day I think that Maya Angelou’s poem will stop people from being racist.
Overall Maya Angelou wrote this poem when other people were being racist to her so she wrote these poems to educate people in the future not to be racist and treat everyone fair so everyone is not left out.
