Reply to comment by MoonChild02 in Alaska lawmaker censured for asking if fatal child abuse saved taxpayer money by notunek

No problem. 🙂

Looks like we both learned something today. I had no idea she had a PhD. I always knew her as Maya Angelou. Never heard the title doctor when people spoke of her.

She had over 50 doctorates. They were honorary, but she definitely deserves the title for all the work she did. She even taught both guest classes and semester-long classes on civil rights and writing at a few universities.

I must be honest, I knew very little about her. I just always liked that quote. I knew she was big on civil rights.
