Notes
Schomburg, also known as Arthur Schomburg, took an active role advocating Puerto Rico's independence.

Arturo Alfonso Schomburg (January 24, 1874 – June 10, 1938), was a historian,[1] writer, bibliophile, collector,[2] and activist. He also wrote many books.[3] Schomburg was a Puerto Rican of African and German descent. He moved to the United States in 1891, where he researched and raised awareness of the contributions that Afro-Latin Americans and African Americans have made to society.[4] He was an important intellectual figure in the Harlem Renaissance. Over the years, he collected literature, art, slave narratives, and other materials of African history, which were purchased to become the basis of the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, named in his honor, at the New York Public Library (NYPL) branch in Harlem.[5]
