Angelou began, early in her writing career, alternating the publication of an autobiography and a volume of poetry. By the time And Still I Rise was published in 1978, she had published three autobiographies, eventually going on to publish seven. In 1993, she read her poem  On the Pulse of Morning  at President Bill Clinton's inauguration.
Still I rise contains so many images that I love. In the first stanza, Angelou writes that although she may be trod into the very dirt, she will still rise like dust (âlike dust, Iâll riseâ). This idea, coupled with the soulful rhythm, creates a palpable atmosphere of unstoppable defiance.
