Black Man: Founder of the Cell Phone

http://globalhoodnews.blogspot.com/2011/05/ever-wonder-who-invented-cell-phone.html

I did not know until today that Henry Sampson (inventor) a black man is the person credited for the creation of the cell phone. I googled his name and came up with 9,580,000 results. Check out this man's education.

 

Excellent find man!

 

This.

 

The pleasure is mine my brother. There is nothing, nothing, nothing that we as men cannot do. The only limitation is what we put on ourselves.

 

We're the progenitors of life practically. I agree with your sentiments, so let's keep going!

 

Did you guys know a bm came up with the supersoaker water gun. He was a rocket scientist who stumbled onto it after fix a water heater

 

I wouldn't be surprised.

 

wait a rocket scientist and inventor of a popular mega-toy was black?

^This statement is fact.^

Henry Sampson is the first African American to earn a doctorate degree in nuclear engineering. He invented the Gamma-Electrical Cell. Sampson's patent is (US 3,591,860).


The Gamma-Electric cell was patented by Henry Sampson in 1971, for Nuclear Reactor usage. The Gamma-Electric cell device worked by converting nuclear radiation into electricity without needing to go through a heat cycle. The Gamma-Electric cell is used to find radiation in the ground through a stable high-voltage output. The basic idea of the Gamma-Electric cell was to convert powerful radiating energies into safe and useful energy sources.

This invention allowed a nuclear reactor to make and consume its own fuel while running on waste product. Microsoft uses TerraPower, which is the nuclear reactor process, to develop the reactor and lifecyle of fuel. This is efficient because the reactor does not need refueling or waste removal until the end of the reactor's life and the end of a reactor's life is hundreds of years.

The purpose is to generate power, shield radiation, and detect radiation from a nuclear power plant. His invention protects the lives of millions of people throughout the world.

He is a respected writer and film historian who recently donated an expansive collection of historical materials to Jackson State University. The collection is the largest independently held collection of its type. It consists of original and rare silent and sound films, photographs, minstrel and movie posters, sheet music, audio and video recordings and out-of-print books. This collection relates to the historic contributions of African Americans to motion pictures, the performing arts, music, radio and television broadcasting in the U.S. between 1865 and 1970.

He is a great man, more than just an inventor of something great.

Btw,Martin Cooper is credited with the invention of the modern cell phone. He worked for Motorola at the time. Of course it was really a team of industrial designers and engineers that really built something that complex. Cooper was named as the first inventor on the “Radio telephone system” patent filed on Oct. 27, 1973, with the U.S. Patent Office later issued as U.S. Patent 3.906.166.

 

There's a lot more than what we're seeing here.

History of Black Inventors

 

I didn't know. Thanks for the post BT2005.

 

Damn, I thought y'al blk ppl are dumb and stupid.

Nuclear phyiscist and cell phone inventor, hot damn HATS OF TO THIS BROTHER. I bet ya 99 % of America thinks it some Scandinavian or a German descendent American who came up with the concept. We have been bamboozled in this country, fuck that I will recommend home schooling for my niece and nephew like Amish children, lol.

 

This

 

Now watch that fool Empyrium come through this thread with his nonsense and pronounce that those two links are bogus because black people haven't contributed anything to civilization.....

 

We contributed alot

..it's just that you don't see us well represented in the companies that produce the stuff associated with it (more mothafuckas need to graduate college and get those jobs)

plus you have Hollywood and another lack of representation

 

I actually found out about that a few days ago. I was like "no way". lol

 

I know right. That shit shaped my summers when I was a kid. It was all about the water gun fight.

 

Supersoakers are the coolest. Ever. They never ever stop being fun in hot weather.

In Thailand, when they celebrate Thai NY it's a water festival where the entire country essentially gets drunk and runs around with all sorts of super soakers drenching each other in the heat. I lived there for a while and got to enjoy two such days...endless fun.

Squirting someone with a water gun in Summer never, ever gets old.

 

yeah too much butt kissing black athletes and entertainers when we should be pushing education to be these kind of people and personal finance to handle money properly. financial education and a proper education to start your own business or being an inventor or ect....will be better than being an athlete (nothing is wrong with that but damn)
