Find a beautiful piece of art. If you fall in love with Van Gogh or Matisse or John Oliver Killens, or if you fall love with the music of Coltrane, the music of Aretha Franklin, or the music of Chopin – find some beautiful art and admire it, and realize that that was created by human beings just like you, no more human, no less… You will be able to go around the world, learning languages, speaking to everybody, because no one can be more human than you or be less human. They can be meaner or crueler, or sweeter or prettier, younger, richer, but they can’t be more human than you. Remember that.

And Still I Rise, Maya Angelou, 1978.

In the aftermath of the devastating outcome of this election, Maya Angelou brings us a glimmer of hope. It’s important to remember that we are still stronger together. We have to dry our eyes, dust ourselves off, and get to work. We will rise.

I remember learning about Maya Angelou in High School, and becoming so inspired. She endured so much but handled her life and writing with such grace. I wrote a report on her and she made me feel like women were capable of absolutely anything.
