Mit jedem Schlag unserer Flügel
Ein Angebot von Malcolm X lockt sie Mitte der Sechziger zurück in ihre Heimat. Maya Angelou soll Seite an Seite mit dem Schwarzen Bürgerrechtler arbeiten. Ihre vier Jahre in Ghana enden, genau wie die Versuche, auf dem afrikanischen Kontinent Versöhnung zu finden. Was nun beginnt, ist der offene Kampf gegen den Rassismus in den Vereinigten Staaten, mit viel zu vielen Opfern: Malcolm X wird erschossen, im Stadtteil Watts im Süden von Los Angeles kosten Ausschreitungen zahlreichen Schwarzen Menschen das Leben, Martin Luther King stirbt bei einem Attentat ... Aus nächster Nähe berichtet Maya Angelou von den historischen Rückschlägen und der Gewalt, von der Macht eines menschenverachtenden Systems, bis sie ein zweites Mal in ihrem Leben vor Schmerz fast verstummt. James Baldwin ist es, der ihr Sinn und Zweck und Kraft und Schönheit der Worte in Erinnerung ruft und sie bittet, schreib es alles auf. Mit jedem Schlag unserer Flügel schließt den Kreis. Maya Angelou beschwört darin die Opfer auf dem Weg zu mehr Gerechtigkeit. Sie bezeugt den Überlebenswillen der Schwarzen Gemeinschaft und feiert die Sprache als Ort der Erlösung.
