    Angelou, Maya. “The Reunion.” Confirmation: An Anthology of African American Women, edited by Amina Baraka and Amiri Baraka (LeRoi Jones), Morrow, 1983, 54-58.

    Maya Angelou’s “The Reunion”is set in 1958 Chicago in a jazz club. A black woman, Philomena, is playing the piano in the band when she notices a white woman, Beth Ann Baker. She recognizes Beth from her childhood and remembers how her parents worked as servants for the Baker family. With jazz music as the backdrop, the two women meet again. Their conversation is short, tense, and dominated by Beth’s tone-deaf sharing about the familial hardships brought on by her relationship with Willard, a black man. Angelou supplements the conversation with Philomena’s internal dialogue as she wrestles with the roles of race, class, and memory in her life. This piece will be used as a model for teaching the methodological strategies Njelle Hamilton explores in her work, Phonographic Memories. We will focus on moments of remembering, embodiment, genre, and fragments as they relate to sound and nostalgia.
