Magnificent, Super Fantastic! It was so wonderful to see and hear Lady Angelou on the occasion of gifting her collection to my library. She touches my heart, as only a poet teacher can do. She is and continues to be a role model not just to us Harlemites but also to the world. Thank you Schomburg, thank you Dr. Angelou.
