Hoever, he is trying to say that these inventions done by Black inventors were less valid than the white inventors who preceded theirs...i.e., it is a known fact that George Washington Carver never invented peanut butter, but all of his research done with the peanut, soybeans, sweet potatoes, etc. is a matter of public record! Garrett A. Morgan did not originally invent the gas mask, but he did invent one that was cheaper and more practical than the ones in use at the time...the same with the traffic signal...In short, it doesn't matter whether or not they were the first...What matters is theirs was the ones that got the attention of the public. Just because you invented something doesn't necessarily imply you originated the idea...This person is just another jerk out there trying desperatly to discredit Black intelligence...
