So often in our history, the Black people behind the inventions and innovations that define our lives are made invisible and forgotten, erased by a culture of white supremacy. 

As right-wing politicians around the country are focusing their culture war efforts on banning an accurate recounting of American history, we must do our part to uplift the voices and stories that they are trying to silence. 

Garrett Morgan, the son of formerly enslaved parents, had only an elementary school education when he created the stoplight that is still used at intersections today. 

Alice H. Walker was working as a cook in New Jersey in 1919 when she patented a central heating system that led to the creation of modern home heating systems used across the globe.

And in 2020, Dr. Kizzmekia Corbett became the lead scientist at the National Institutes of Health’s Vaccine Research Center. Her work led to the creation of the mRNA COVID-19 vaccine.
