The words from Maya Angelou’s poem "Caged Bird" should be matched to their implied meanings as follows;

Caged bird ↔ African American

Freedom ↔ sky

Cage ↔ Jim Crow Laws

Self expression ↔ sing

Free bird ↔ white American.

Maya Angelou was an African American woman who endured hardships and sexual assault from men during her childhood. Maya Angelou’s poem titled "Caged Bird" was written to express her thoughts on the condition of the African American that are living in the United States of America.

Caged bird represents the African Americans, who had no freedom or liberty to do what they like or enjoy some of the rights accrued to their fellow white American citizens.
