I have a lot of respect for Maya Angelou, and reading her autobiographies did help me see a difference between racist assumptions made by blacks against whites and those made by whites against blacks.
I'm not saying it applies to anyone of any age, but certainly the world she grew up in and what she had to face, I'm surprised her views have mellowed to the extent they have.
She's a good argument for tolerance and integration as a way of changing prejudices.
