"#CDNB #BlackHistory:  Maya Angelou  As a friend and coordinator for Martin Luther King Jr.'s Southern Christian Leadership Conference, when Dr. King was killed on her birthday (April 4, 1968), she said she found herself unable to celebrate her birthday from then on. As a hero to her, she was very impacted by his death. Therefore, on her birthday, for many years, she instead decided to send flowers to Coretta Scott King every year until her death in 2006.    ""I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.""  ― Maya Angelou"
