Why this resource is included
Overview of Hughes sites: the brownstone, the Schomburg Center ashes, the block renaming to Langston Hughes Place. Quotes Hughes: I would rather have a kitchenette in Harlem than a mansion in Westchester. For campaign context: the kitchenette reference connects directly to the kitchenette-furnished room Mrs. Jones rents in a boarding house in the story. Free article.
