In
addition to the hundreds of books by Black authors that were sent to
the Paris Exposition by the Library of Congress as part of the Exhibit
of the American Negroes, hundreds of pamphlets by Black authors were
also sent as well. Many of the pamplets sent to the Paris Exposition
are now available as part of the American Memory Project at the Library
Congress. If you have an Internet connection, you can connect to this
