Maya Angelou: Raising the New Generation

April 4, 1928 - May 27, 2014
The illustrious and talented Dr. Maya Angelou went to glory to May 27, 2014. A renowned poet, educator, historian, best-selling author, actress, playwright, civil rights activist, producer and director, Dr. Angelou was one of the great voices of contemporary literature and a Renaissance woman. NVLP's mission is to develop the next generation of leaders by recording, preserving, and sharing the stories of extraordinary African-American elders—Visionaries—who have transcended barriers, shaped American history, and influenced the world through the rich African-American tradition of social change.
