Maya Angelou moved to Ghana in the 1960s primarily to work as a journalist and to be involved in the African liberation movements. At that time, Ghana was a symbol of hope for many Africans and the African diaspora, as it was one of the first countries in sub-Saharan Africa to gain independence from colonial rule. Angelou sought to connect with her African roots and contribute to the cultural and political landscape of the continent. Her experiences in Ghana greatly influenced her writing and worldview.
Maya Angelou wrote the poem "They Went Home" to honor and remember the victims of the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing in Birmingham, Alabama in 1963.
