Is the situation described by Maya Angelou in her poem " I know why the caged bird sings" applicable only to the, then American or Western society ? Can't it be applicable to the present Sri Lankan society too? If yes, in what aspects? Economical, social , political or cultural? or in almost all these aspects?
