Maya Angelou The voice of contemporary literature

All God's Children Need Traveling Shoes

All God's Children Need Traveling Shoes

Synopsis:

All God’s Children Need Traveling Shoes takes Maya to Ghana, where she joins a community of black Americans. In a vivid celebration of the sights, sounds, and feelings of Africa, Maya Angelou also explores what it means to be African-American on the mother continent, where color no longer matters, but where American-ness asserts itself in ways both puzzling and heartbreaking. Once again, she longs for home.
