According to the Library of Congress, on becoming a poet laureate:
1. How does one acquire the title of state poet laureate?
State poets laureate can acquire their title unofficially or officially. Unofficially, a laureate may be so named through a literary club ceremony, widespread popularity or publicity, or through nicknaming. This allows many poets to claim laureate status, however. Official designation of state poet laureate is by governor's act or proclamation, by legislative action, or by both governor and legislature.

Dr. Maya Angelou is a world renowned poet, human & civil rights champion, and American hero (amongst many of her other magnanimous attributes and works). It is safe to say, through general consensus, that we can call her a poet laureate as well.
Regardless of titles, through her works, she belongs to all because she has impacted, inspired, and influenced many not of her gender or race.
