Perhaps more than any other single text, Maya Angelou's "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings" helped to establish the audience and the 'mainstream' status of the renaissance in black women's writing. Along with Braxton's introduction and the Claudia Tate interview, the selected essays provide a range of critical approaches to the text.
