Discover New York

Use the website:

http://exhibitions.nypl.org/harlem/

to view the online exhibit from the New York Public Library about Harlem in the early 20th century. (The website is kind of tricky. You will find the “main menu” at the right-top corner of the webpage.)

Then response to these questions:

1. Read the biography of Arturo (Arthur) Alfonso Schomburg in the exhibit. What connections did Schomburg have with Harlem?

(Go to “main menu” and then click “exhibition” and under the 2nd”intellectuals” you can find Arturo (Arthur) Alfonso Schomburg) If you cannot find it, you can read the biography in the uploaded file “Arturo (Arthur) Alfonso Schomburg.docx”)

2. Read in the online exhibit about Madame C.J. Walker. (Go to “main menu” and then click “exhibition” and under the business group). Is there anything about her life that you think would have been surprising or controversial in the early 20th century?

3. Describe something else that you noticed or found interesting in the exhibit timeline, photographs, or content (these are under “main menu”)
