fool a black man invented a device that is part of the steam boat to keep it lubricated. blacks invented large amounts of items. to suggest that blacks have not contributed to society in the scientific arena is an insular statement better yet ignorant. it is no way you could be a black person (man) to say something like that unless your name is kenny hamblin. you sound like TIRKAH.
You're a lazy mutha fuccer, empyrium. Banjamin Banneker invented the first American clock in 1770. Another Negro, former slave Norman Rilleaux's work on evaporation and the liquid reduction process in the refining of sugar, in the opinion of some, has been "the greatest in the history of American chemical engineering." Dr. Charles Drew invented the mass storage techniques used in blood banks, an innovation that in no small part helped the Allies win WWII. Marie Van Brittan Brown received the first patent for the closed circuit television security system. In 1853, George Crum invented the potato chip. Frederick McKinley Jones invented the refrigeration systems for long haul trucks. Garrett A. Morgan invented the gas mask. Lewis Latimer invented the carbon filament used in light bulbs that incandesces to generate LIGHT. Otis Boykin (1920–1982) invented the electronic control devices for guided missiles, IBM computers, and the pacemaker. Lonnie G. Johnson invented the SUPER-SOAKER. This list could go on for pages. The point being empyrium is that you made an ignorant, dishonest, injurious statement against ALL Black people by assuming what little you know about the history of Black contributions to Western society is somehow FACT. That the worst thing about DUMB niccas. They don't know how stoopid they really are.:smt019
he is just another " I hate my skin" brother like Tirkah and smooth. Im sure you are wasting your time with this cat. just file 13 this guy with the other two and be done with it
Can't believe the HIV/AIDS argument with BM is mentioned here. It's manipulated science and it's a myth just to make us look bad. Hard to believe that a fellow BM (supposedly) doesn't realize it. To carry on the topic about inventions made by black men and women, I'll continue from where the other guy left off. http://www.black-inventor.com/John-Thompson.asp (BM) http://www.black-inventor.com/Valerie-Thomas.asp (BW)
A tad smarter?, you mean smarter like you?, thanks but no thanks. None, I didn't claim I'd made any contributions to society, genius. There are many black scientists, but none of them have made any major contributions to science. Good, that's remarkable, but when I say contribution I mean contributions like the ones made by Yoichiro Nambu, you know the kind of contribution that warrants a nobel prize. It is important, but nothing groundbreaking. That's rich, how old are you?, 12?
If you really believe the HIV thing is a myth then I'm done with you. It's because of people like you that HIV is so widespread.
So wait a minute, now you're qualifying contribution to society as Nobel Prize worthy??? LOL!!! You're filled with shit up to the gills, empyrium.
So then why are you sitting here judging what other blacks have done? You're like a white guy who sits around talking about how much smarter white people are, yet he himself lives in a trailer park and never graduated from high school. Like I said, scores of black people have done 100x more then you ever will. Yet you judge them and say they haven't had any major contributions to society? If you don't think any black scientist has been adequate enough then how about you be the first to do something important? We all know however, that will never happen.... Well.......you know, it's not a "major contribution to society" unless you win a noble prize.
They did a job on black people everywhere in this world but it doesn't mean any of us are ruined but I'll some simple ass mofos are holding us back but not keeping us down.
Yep. Her name is Dr. Patricia Bath. In 1981, Bath conceived of the invention for which she has become famous -- the Laserphaco Probe, a surgical tool that uses a laser to vaporize cataracts via a tiny, 1-millimeter insertion into a patient’s eye. After using the Laserphaco Probe to remove a cataract, the patient’s lens can be removed and a replacement lens inserted. http://web.mit.edu/invent/iow/bath.html http://www.blackinventor.com/pages/patricia-bath.html
I'm not judging them, don't know where you got this idea, I said they haven't made any major contributions.
