How are you planning to relax and celebrate after the ceremony? I think I’m going to be on a rollercoaster for a while. I’m in the front seat of a Ferrari right now. But I’m looking forward to absorbing everything that will happen afterwards, [and] definitely journaling about it, writing more poetry about it. I’m coming out with a poetry collection later this year, so a lot of this will be processed in that work. My children’s book also comes out in September. It’s called Change Sings. I wanted young readers to have the opportunity to see themselves represented in books as real change-makers, leaders, and people with the potential to make a difference.
Not to distract from the weightier significances of the moment for you, but I know you’re wearing Prada. How did you arrive at the look you chose to wear, and what about it felt right for you? It’s Vogue, so let’s talk fashion [laughs]. I am weaving my own type of symbolism into my outfit, and it’s really special and important to me to deliver these nuggets of information and sentimentality as I’m reciting the poem. Oprah actually got in contact with me, and we’ve been in touch for a while now. Every single time I get a text from her I fall on the floor. She was like, “I’m so excited that you’re doing the poem,” and she’s been really supportive because she knew how nervous I was about going. She said, “I bought the coat and gloves that Maya Angelou wore when she recited her inaugural poem. I’d love to continue the tradition with you and bring something to your outfit.” I was like… [gasps dramatically]. Oprah also bought me some jewelry which you will get to see when I’m performing. One thing I can say is that I’m pretty sure I’ll be wearing a ring that has a caged bird, to symbolize I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings. I’m also wearing a yellow coat, which is my own nod to Dr. Jill Biden, who was the one who recommended me in the first place, and I’m so honored by that. She said, “I saw this video of you and you were wearing yellow and I loved it.” I’m glad we can talk about the fashion, because it has so much meaning to me, and it’s my way to lean into the history that came before me and all the people supporting me.
