Maya Angelou has taped two
sets o f public service announce­
ments to educate the public about
parental controls on cable TV
and HIV/AIDS awareness and
prevention.
The distinguished author, ac­
tor and historian, is featured in
several 30-second PSAs for the
“TakeControl. It’s Easy” cam ­
paign to emphasize that paren­
tal control features provided by
cable operators are accessible
and easy to use.
The majority of cable cus-
tomers already have parental
control technology available to
them because it is a feature built
in to the "set-top” box that is
provided to all digital and many
analog cable subscribers, and
100 million TVshave built-in V-
chips that can block program­
ming based on TV ratings.
Angelou is also featured in
two different 30-second PSAs
to support “Join the Fight,” the
cable in d u stry ’s H IV /A ID S

paign.

1872 and out o f print for
many years, “The Under­

The stories were re­

Still, a son of emancipated

hundreds of their stories.
His work stands among the most significant records of
human oppression, struggle, and deliverance, o f all time.
The 2005 edition includes the complete text of the 1872
edition, along with a biography of Still.
