Dr. King Assassinated on Maya Angelou's 40th birthday
I'm today years old, finding out that two of the most inspiring figures are intertwined forever by a date of birth and a day of homegoing.
After some quick googling, I find out that Maya Angelou was 40 years old when Dr. King was assassinated.* I don't believe in coincidences and because I've been focusing on Dr. King in my blog series since February, I couldn't let today go by without acknowledging this newfound information (in my world). A touching gesture I also found out was that Coretta Scott King and Maya Angelou would send flowers to each other on this day for 30 years.* God bless both families on this day. Maya Angelou passed on May 28, 2014.
