In luminous paintings and arresting poems, two of children's literature's top African-American scholars track Arturo Schomburg's quest to correct history. Where is our historian to give us our side? Arturo asked. Amid the scholars, poets, authors, and artists of the Harlem Renaissance stood an Afro-Puerto Rican named Arturo Schomburg. This law clerk's life's passion was to collect books, letters, music, and art from Africa and the African diaspora and bring to light the achievements of people of African descent through the ages. When Schomburg's collection became so big it began to overflow his house (and his wife threatened to mutiny), he turned to the New York Public Library, where he created and curated a collection that was the cornerstone of a new Negro Division. A century later, his groundbreaking collection, known as the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, has become a beacon to scholars all over the world.Binding Type: Hardcover

Best purchase for coffee lovers
Color: White-Stainless
I use this every morning and anytime I have guests over, it’s become a staple in my kitchen. It heats and froths milk perfectly, giving that smooth, creamy texture every time. Super easy to use with simple controls, and cleanup is just as easy. It looks great on the counter too.
This is a great product if you enjoy delicious coffee at home and want to save money by not buying coffee from coffee shops. Definitely a great buy.

Make your Cappuccinos!
Color: White
I purchased this after a trip to France. I drank a lot of cafe cremes, pretty much like a cappuccino, and decided I need it in my like every day. Easy to use. Didn’t come with instructions but I was able to figure it out. Takes a little time but works well for what I want to achieve. Love the glass pitcher. Doesn’t spill when pouring. It’s very quiet while frothing super easy to clean. I love it!

Great frother
Color: Matte Black
It makes a great milk froth and heats well.
One thing however, in spite of respecting the line limit it spills out and you have to clean the whole thing. So don’t fill it up to the line limit.

Thick foam for Cappuccinos
Color: White-Stainless, Color: White-Stainless
Comes with sevaral options including thin and thick foam, hot milk and cold foam. I used the thick foam for cappuccinos and I was impressed by the consistency. Not so much noise and easy to clean. The frother tools come off easily for cleaning the pitcher.
