“Maya Angelou entered our lives at Virago in 1984, when we first published I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings. "Entered our lives" is too tame. She danced, sang, and laughed her way straight into our hearts. She brought us a best-seller, but more than that, she brought us a reminder that the human need for dignity and recognition is a gift easily given to one another, but also frighteningly easy to withhold.”

The fact is we are everywhere and in every walk of life: there are thousands of us in law, medicine, business, education, the police, media, even in government.

Is that why women shy from claiming their position?
