Maya Angelou's uncle confronted her mother's boyfriend, Mr. Freeman, after she disclosed that he had raped her. While the exact details of Freeman's death are not entirely clear, it is suggested that he was killed, possibly in an act of revenge by her family. This incident underscores the themes of trauma and familial protection in Angelou's work.
