In the poem, Maya Angelou writes, “’Cause I walk like I've got oil wells, Pumping in my living room” (Angelou 2). The poet is referring to acting as though she is extremely wealthy even though she is not, which emphasizes the love she feels toward herself. The title itself also exemplifies the feeling of loving oneself. Throughout the title and multiple verses, there is a repetition of “Still, I rise” (Angelou). The use of repetition encourages the reader to continuously remind themselves, alongside the narrator that getting back up and loving oneself is a necessary component for survival. Both examples help support the idea that Maya Angelou’s poem “Still I Rise” builds confidence and empowerment for the African American community.
