Madame C.J. Walker (Dec. 23, 1867-May 25, 1919)

Smith Collection/Gado / Getty Images
Born Sarah Breedlove, Madame C.J. Walker became the first Black female millionaire by inventing a line of cosmetics and hair products aimed at Black consumers in the first decades of the 20th century. Walker pioneered the use of female sales agents, who traveled door to door across the U.S. and Caribbean selling her products. An active philanthropist, Walker also was an early champion of employee development and offered business training and other educational opportunities to her workers as a means of helping her fellow Black women achieve financial independence.

George Washington Carver became one of the leading agronomists of his time, pioneering numerous uses for peanuts, soybeans, and sweet potatoes. Enslaved from the time of his birth in Missouri in the midst of the Civil War, Carver was fascinated by plants from an early age. As the first Black undergraduate student at Iowa State, he studied soybean fungi and developed new means of crop rotation. After earning his master's degree, Carver accepted a job at Alabama's Tuskegee Institute, a leading historically Black university. It was at Tuskegee that Carver made his greatest contributions to science, developing more than 300 uses for the peanut alone, including soap, skin lotion, and paint.

Dr. Lonnie Johnson, president and CEO at Excellatron, but probably best known as the inventor of the Super Soaker,. Office of Naval Research/Flickr/CC-BY-2.0
Inventor Lonnie Johnson holds more than 80 U.S. patents, but it's his invention of the Super Soaker toy that is perhaps his most endearing claim to fame. An engineer by training, Johnson has worked on both the stealth bomber project for the Air Force and the Galileo space probe for NASA, as well as developed means of harnessing solar and geothermal energy for power plants. But it's the Super Soaker toy, first patented in 1986, that is his most popular invention. It's racked up nearly $1 billion in sales since its release.

George Edward Alcorn, Jr. is a physicist whose work in the aerospace industry helped revolutionize astrophysics and semiconductor manufacturing. He is credited with 20 inventions, eight of which he received patents for. Perhaps his best-known innovation is for an x-ray spectrometer used to analyze distant galaxies and other deep-space phenomena, which he patented in 1984. Alcorn's research into plasma etching, for which he received a patent in 1989, is still used in the production of computer chips, also known as semiconductors.

Benjamin Banneker was a self-educated astronomer, mathematician, and farmer. He was among a few hundred free African Americans living in Maryland, where enslavement was legal at the time. Despite having little knowledge of timepieces, among his many accomplishments, Banneker is perhaps best known for a series of almanacs he published between 1792 and 1797 that contained detailed astronomical calculations of his, as well as writings on topics of the day. Banneker also had a small role in helping to survey Washington D.C. in 1791.

Unknown Author / U.S. National Library of Medicine / Wikimedia Commons / Public Domain
Charles Drew was a doctor and medical researcher whose pioneering research into blood helped save thousands of lives during World War II. As a postgraduate researcher at Columbia University in the late 1930s, Drew invented a means of separating plasma from whole blood, allowing it to be stored for up to a week, far longer than had been possible at the time. Drew also discovered that plasma could be transfused between persons regardless of blood type and helped the British government establish their first national blood bank. Drew worked briefly with the American Red Cross during World War II, but resigned to protest the organization's insistence on segregating blood from white and Black donors. He continued to research, teach, and advocate until his death in 1950 in a car accident.

Thomas L. Jennings (1791 - Feb. 12, 1856)
Thomas Jennings holds the distinction of being the first African American to be granted a patent. A tailor by trade in New York City, Jennings applied for and received a patent in 1821 for a cleaning technique he'd pioneered called "dry scouring." It was a precursor to today's dry cleaning. His invention made Jennings a wealthy man and he used his earnings to support early abolition and civil rights organizations.

Elijah McCoy (May 2, 1844-Oct. 10, 1929)
Elijah McCoy was born in Canada to parents who had been enslaved in the U.S. The family resettled in Michigan a few years after Elijah was born, and the boy showed a keen interest in mechanical objects growing up. After training as an engineer in Scotland as a teen, he returned to the States. Unable to find a job in engineering because of racial discrimination, McCoy found work as a railroad fireman. It was while working in that role that he developed a new means of keeping locomotive engines lubricated while running, allowing them to operate longer between maintenance. McCoy continued to refine this and other inventions during his lifetime, receiving some 60 patents.
09
of 10
Garrett Morgan (March 4, 1877-July 27, 1963)
Garrett Morgan is best known for his invention in 1914 of the safety hood, a precursor to the gas masks of today. Morgan was so confident of his invention's potential that he frequently demonstrated it himself in sales pitches to fire departments across the country. In 1916, he earned widespread acclaim after donning his safety hood to rescue workers who were trapped by an explosion in a tunnel beneath Lake Erie near Cleveland. Morgan later would invent one of the first traffic signals and a new clutch for auto transmissions. Active in the early civil rights movement, he helped found one of the first African American newspapers in Ohio, the Cleveland Call.

James Edward Maceo West (Born Feb. 10, 1931)

Johns Hopkins School of Engineering Professor Dr. James Edward Maceo West featured with a prototype of his research group's latest invention, a smart digital stethoscope with artificial intelligence algorithms.
Own Work / Sonavi Labs / Wikimedia Commons / CC-BY-SA-4.0
If you've ever used a microphone, you have James West to thank for it. West was fascinated by radio and electronics from an early age, and he trained as a physicist. After college, he went to work at Bell Labs, where research on how humans hear led to his invention of the foil electret microphone in 1960. Such devices were more sensitive, yet used less power and were smaller than other microphones at the time, and they revolutionized the field of acoustics. Today, foil electret-style mics are used in everything from telephones to computers.

....and in your second example---he did NOT invent peanuts/etc
they use the word PIONEER--not invent --different ..they are not INVENTING anything
..you prove the OP's point AGAIN
jajhahahhahahhahaha

Washington improved the usage of peanuts
He also proved Tomatoes weren't poisoned to eat.

still not an invention ..he was just using what whites started

he invented better uses for
Checkmate

hahahhahahahahhaha
.....not an invention--you fked up again!!!!!= you said ''better USES''' for the invention
..you see, when you start a lie, it spins into a web you get entangled with

Black Inventors through American History
George Alcorn
Not many inventors have resumes as impressive as George Edward Alcorn's. Among his credits, the African-American inventor received a B.A. in physics, a master's degree in nuclear physics and a Ph.D in atomic and molecular physics. Despite such impressive credentials, Alcorn is probably most famous for his innovation of the imaging x-ray spectrometer.
Benjamin Banneker
In the Stevie Wonder song "Black Man," the Motown marvel sings of Benjamin Banneker: "first clock to be made in America was created by a black man." Though the song is a fitting salute to a great inventor (and African Americans in general), it only touches on the genius of Benjamin Banneker and the many hats he wore – as a farmer, mathematician, astronomer, author and land surveyor.
Dr. Patricia Bath
Imagine living in a world ranging from hazy, clouded vision to that of total darkness for 30 years. Before 1985, that was the plight of those with cataracts who did not want to risk surgery with a mechanical grinder. Now imagine sitting in a doctor's office without being able to see her as she explains that it may be possible to restore your vision.
Otis Boykin
Few inventors have had the lasting impact of Otis Boykin. Look around the house today and you'll see a variety of devices that utilize components made by Boykin – including computers, radios and TV sets. Boykin's inventions are all the more impressive when one considers he was an African American in a time of segregation and the field of electronics was not as well-established as it is today.
Marie Van Brittan Brown
While home security systems today are more advanced than ever, back in 1966 the idea for a home surveillance device seemed almost unthinkable. That was the year famous African-American inventor Marie Van Brittan Brown, and her partner Albert Brown, applied for an invention patent for a closed-circuit television security system.
George Washington Carver
Generally, when people think of famous African-American inventors, one of the first names that springs to mind is George Washington Carver. Perhaps most famously, Carver discovered over 300 different uses for peanuts – including making cooking oil, axle grease and printer's ink.
George Crum
Every time a person crunches into a potato chip, he or she is enjoying the delicious taste of one of the world's most famous snacks – a treat that might not exist without the contribution of black inventor George Crum.
Dr. Mark Dean
As a child, Mark Dean excelled in math. In elementary school, he took advanced level math courses and, in high school, Dean even built his own computer, radio, and amplifier. Dean continued his interests and went on to obtain a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering from the University of Tennessee, a masters degree in electrical engineering from Florida Atlantic University and a Ph.D. in electrical engineering from Stanford.
Dr. Charles Richard Drew
It's impossible to determine how many hundreds of thousands of people would have lost their lives without the contributions of African-American inventor Dr. Charles Drew. This physician, researcher and surgeon revolutionized the understanding of blood plasma – leading to the invention of blood banks.
Kenneth J. Dunkley
Kenneth J. Dunkley is currently the president of the Holospace Laboratories Inc. in Camp Hill, Pennsylvania. He is best known for inventing Three Dimensional Viewing Glasses (3-DVG) – his patented invention that displays 3-D effects from regular 2-D photos without any type of lenses, mirrors or optical elements.
Dr. Philip Emeagwali
Philip Emeagwali, who has been called the "Bill Gates of Africa," was born in Nigeria in 1957. Like many African schoolchildren, he dropped out of school at age 14 because his father could not continue paying Emeagwali's school fees. However, his father continued teaching him at home and everyday Emeagwali performed mental exercises such as solving 100 math problems in one hour.
Dr. Betty Harris
Born and raised in Monroe, Louisiana, the young Betty Harris was interested in chemistry. At college she obtained a BS degree in chemistry from Southern University and an MS degree in chemistry from Atlanta University.
Dr. Shirley Jackson
Dr. Shirley Jackson, a theoretical physicist, has been credited with making many advances in science. She first developed an interest in science and mathematics during her childhood and conducted experiments and studies such as on the eating habits of honeybees. She followed this interest to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) where she received a bachelors, masters, and doctoral degree, all in the field of physics.
Lonnie G. Johnson
An anonymous source said of the Super Soaker®: "I got fired from a job once because of my Super Soaker. I guess that's what happens when you accidentally drench a customer when you're trying to get a co-worker who ducks."
Frederick McKinley Jones
Anytime you see a truck on the highway transporting refrigerated or frozen food, you're seeing the work of Frederick McKinley Jones. One of the most prolific Black inventors ever, Jones patented more than 60 inventions in his lifetime.
Garrett A. Morgan
Many of the world's most famous inventors only produced one major invention that garnered recognition and cemented their prominent status. But Garret Augustus Morgan, one of the country's most successful African-American inventors, created two – the gas mask and the traffic signal.
Valerie Thomas
Did you ever think of what it might be like if your television could project the on-screen image directly into your living room as a 3-Dimensional image? Maybe not, but if it happens, you may have Valerie Thomas to thank for it.
John Henry Thompson
Even in high school, John Henry Thompson was interested in computer programming languages. He taught himself several programming languages such as FORTRAN, PLI, COBOL and JCL while working in a New York research facility. Thompson's goal was to absorb as much knowledge as possible so he could develop his own computer language.
James E. West
Ninety percent of microphones used today are based on the ingenuity of James Edward West, an African-American inventor born in 1931 in Prince Edwards County, VA. If you've ever talked on the telephone, you've probably used his invention.

.....they did NOT invent closed circuit television!!!!!! SOB!! they are using what whites invented and using it for other uses

Benjamin Banneker was a self-educated astronomer, mathematician, and farmer. He was among a few hundred free African Americans living in Maryland, where enslavement was legal at the time. Despite having little knowledge of timepieces, among his many accomplishments, Banneker is perhaps best known for a series of almanacs he published between 1792 and 1797 that contained detailed astronomical calculations of his, as well as writings on topics of the day. Banneker also had a small role in helping to survey Washington D.C. in 1791.

Charles Drew was a doctor and medical researcher whose pioneering research into blood helped save thousands of lives during World War II. As a postgraduate researcher at Columbia University in the late 1930s, Drew invented a means of separating plasma from whole blood, allowing it to be stored for up to a week, far longer than had been possible at the time. Drew also discovered that plasma could be transfused between persons regardless of blood type and helped the British government establish their first national blood bank. Drew worked briefly with the American Red Cross during World War II, but resigned to protest the organization's insistence on segregating blood from white and Black donors. He continued to research, teach, and advocate until his death in 1950 in a car accident.

Thomas L. Jennings (1791 - Feb. 12, 1856)
Thomas Jennings holds the distinction of being the first African American to be granted a patent. A tailor by trade in New York City, Jennings applied for and received a patent in 1821 for a cleaning technique he'd pioneered called "dry scouring." It was a precursor to today's dry cleaning. His invention made Jennings a wealthy man and he used his earnings to support early abolition and civil rights organizations.

Elijah McCoy (May 2, 1844-Oct. 10, 1929)
Elijah McCoy was born in Canada to parents who had been enslaved in the U.S. The family resettled in Michigan a few years after Elijah was born, and the boy showed a keen interest in mechanical objects growing up. After training as an engineer in Scotland as a teen, he returned to the States. Unable to find a job in engineering because of racial discrimination, McCoy found work as a railroad fireman. It was while working in that role that he developed a new means of keeping locomotive engines lubricated while running, allowing them to operate longer between maintenance. McCoy continued to refine this and other inventions during his lifetime, receiving some 60 patents.

Garrett Morgan (March 4, 1877-July 27, 1963)
Garrett Morgan is best known for his invention in 1914 of the safety hood, a precursor to the gas masks of today. Morgan was so confident of his invention's potential that he frequently demonstrated it himself in sales pitches to fire departments across the country. In 1916, he earned widespread acclaim after donning his safety hood to rescue workers who were trapped by an explosion in a tunnel beneath Lake Erie near Cleveland. Morgan later would invent one of the first traffic signals and a new clutch for auto transmissions. Active in the early civil rights movement, he helped found one of the first African American newspapers in Ohio, the Cleveland Call.

James Edward Maceo West (Born Feb. 10, 1931)

Johns Hopkins School of Engineering Professor Dr. James Edward Maceo West featured with a prototype of his research group's latest invention, a smart digital stethoscope with artificial intelligence algorithms.
Own Work / Sonavi Labs / Wikimedia Commons / CC-BY-SA-4.0
If you've ever used a microphone, you have James West to thank for it. West was fascinated by radio and electronics from an early age, and he trained as a physicist. After college, he went to work at Bell Labs, where research on how humans hear led to his invention of the foil electret microphone in 1960. Such devices were more sensitive, yet used less power and were smaller than other microphones at the time, and they revolutionized the field of acoustics. Today, foil electret-style mics are used in everything from telephones to computers.

....and in your second example---he did NOT invent peanuts/etc
they use the word PIONEER--not invent --different ..they are not INVENTING anything
..you prove the OP's point AGAIN
jajhahahhahahhahaha

Washington improved the usage of peanuts
He also proved Tomatoes weren't poisoned to eat.

still not an invention ..he was just using what whites started

he invented better uses for
Checkmate

hahahhahahahahhaha
.....not an invention--you fked up again!!!!!= you said ''better USES''' for the invention
..you see, when you start a lie, it spins into a web you get entangled with

Black Inventors through American History
George Alcorn
Not many inventors have resumes as impressive as George Edward Alcorn's. Among his credits, the African-American inventor received a B.A. in physics, a master's degree in nuclear physics and a Ph.D in atomic and molecular physics. Despite such impressive credentials, Alcorn is probably most famous for his innovation of the imaging x-ray spectrometer.
Benjamin Banneker
In the Stevie Wonder song "Black Man," the Motown marvel sings of Benjamin Banneker: "first clock to be made in America was created by a black man." Though the song is a fitting salute to a great inventor (and African Americans in general), it only touches on the genius of Benjamin Banneker and the many hats he wore – as a farmer, mathematician, astronomer, author and land surveyor.
Dr. Patricia Bath
Imagine living in a world ranging from hazy, clouded vision to that of total darkness for 30 years. Before 1985, that was the plight of those with cataracts who did not want to risk surgery with a mechanical grinder. Now imagine sitting in a doctor's office without being able to see her as she explains that it may be possible to restore your vision.
Otis Boykin
Few inventors have had the lasting impact of Otis Boykin. Look around the house today and you'll see a variety of devices that utilize components made by Boykin – including computers, radios and TV sets. Boykin's inventions are all the more impressive when one considers he was an African American in a time of segregation and the field of electronics was not as well-established as it is today.
Marie Van Brittan Brown
While home security systems today are more advanced than ever, back in 1966 the idea for a home surveillance device seemed almost unthinkable. That was the year famous African-American inventor Marie Van Brittan Brown, and her partner Albert Brown, applied for an invention patent for a closed-circuit television security system.
George Washington Carver
Generally, when people think of famous African-American inventors, one of the first names that springs to mind is George Washington Carver. Perhaps most famously, Carver discovered over 300 different uses for peanuts – including making cooking oil, axle grease and printer's ink.
George Crum
Every time a person crunches into a potato chip, he or she is enjoying the delicious taste of one of the world's most famous snacks – a treat that might not exist without the contribution of black inventor George Crum.
Dr. Mark Dean
As a child, Mark Dean excelled in math. In elementary school, he took advanced level math courses and, in high school, Dean even built his own computer, radio, and amplifier. Dean continued his interests and went on to obtain a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering from the University of Tennessee, a masters degree in electrical engineering from Florida Atlantic University and a Ph.D. in electrical engineering from Stanford.
Dr. Charles Richard Drew
It's impossible to determine how many hundreds of thousands of people would have lost their lives without the contributions of African-American inventor Dr. Charles Drew. This physician, researcher and surgeon revolutionized the understanding of blood plasma – leading to the invention of blood banks.
Kenneth J. Dunkley
Kenneth J. Dunkley is currently the president of the Holospace Laboratories Inc. in Camp Hill, Pennsylvania. He is best known for inventing Three Dimensional Viewing Glasses (3-DVG) – his patented invention that displays 3-D effects from regular 2-D photos without any type of lenses, mirrors or optical elements.
Dr. Philip Emeagwali
Philip Emeagwali, who has been called the "Bill Gates of Africa," was born in Nigeria in 1957. Like many African schoolchildren, he dropped out of school at age 14 because his father could not continue paying Emeagwali's school fees. However, his father continued teaching him at home and everyday Emeagwali performed mental exercises such as solving 100 math problems in one hour.
Dr. Betty Harris
Born and raised in Monroe, Louisiana, the young Betty Harris was interested in chemistry. At college she obtained a BS degree in chemistry from Southern University and an MS degree in chemistry from Atlanta University.
Dr. Shirley Jackson
Dr. Shirley Jackson, a theoretical physicist, has been credited with making many advances in science. She first developed an interest in science and mathematics during her childhood and conducted experiments and studies such as on the eating habits of honeybees. She followed this interest to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) where she received a bachelors, masters, and doctoral degree, all in the field of physics.
Lonnie G. Johnson
An anonymous source said of the Super Soaker®: "I got fired from a job once because of my Super Soaker. I guess that's what happens when you accidentally drench a customer when you're trying to get a co-worker who ducks."
Frederick McKinley Jones
Anytime you see a truck on the highway transporting refrigerated or frozen food, you're seeing the work of Frederick McKinley Jones. One of the most prolific Black inventors ever, Jones patented more than 60 inventions in his lifetime.
Garrett A. Morgan
Many of the world's most famous inventors only produced one major invention that garnered recognition and cemented their prominent status. But Garret Augustus Morgan, one of the country's most successful African-American inventors, created two – the gas mask and the traffic signal.
Valerie Thomas
Did you ever think of what it might be like if your television could project the on-screen image directly into your living room as a 3-Dimensional image? Maybe not, but if it happens, you may have Valerie Thomas to thank for it.
John Henry Thompson
Even in high school, John Henry Thompson was interested in computer programming languages. He taught himself several programming languages such as FORTRAN, PLI, COBOL and JCL while working in a New York research facility. Thompson's goal was to absorb as much knowledge as possible so he could develop his own computer language.
James E. West
Ninety percent of microphones used today are based on the ingenuity of James Edward West, an African-American inventor born in 1931 in Prince Edwards County, VA. If you've ever talked on the telephone, you've probably used his invention.

.....they did NOT invent closed circuit television!!!!!! SOB!! they are using what whites invented and using it for other uses
hahahhahah

Yanno, instead of arguing who invented more or better things, black people or white people, can't we just acknowledge that because of the inventions (and refinements) done by EVERYONE, our lives are a bit better and less hard? We gotta stop with this bullshit of my tribe vs. your tribe, and just say that we are all in this together?

bullshit---it is part of all the lies and myths that screw up America

 

[JOSweetHeart]

A black person invented the stop light and golf tee. A black person also wrote The Three Musketeers and performed the first open heart surgery.

God bless you and their families always!!!

Holly

performing is not inventing

True, but it is still a role that a person plays.

God bless you always!!!

Holly

he didn't invent surgery or medical practices

True, but as long as the person did them the way that they were to be done, their service should be acknowledged and appreciated.

God bless you always!!!

Holly

..but then it starts all the lies and myths--which are a huge part of today's problems

I agree, but at the end of the day, what race doesn't have dishonest people?

God bless you always!!!

Holly

...total bullshit---the whites are not doing all this NAZI crap--destroying/etc
...whites don't riot/burn/loot/etc for LIES like BLM does
AND mods, I'm answering JO's question

My parents' marriage and my trust in people was destroyed when my dad decided to go and do everything that he chose to be guilty of. In other words, if whites are not guilty of rioting, burning, or looting, they can be guilty of destroying things in many other ways: beating, cheating, lying, etc.

God bless you always!!!

Holly

P.S. How ironic that you decided to go with the word "Nazi" when my German DNA comes from his side of my family.

 

[justinacolmena]

The ancients and people of color have, and have had, plenty of technology to do what they do and get by in life.

It's generally a white male "thing" to tout a certain way of doing things as an "invention" and demand all sorts of "intellectual property" protections at law for their monopoly or niche or gig or some "unique" way of doing business they have patented.

 

[Oddball]

Every invention is from a white male !

Ms Lammar disagrees...

When it says this inventor has a certain amount of patents what does that mean?
Who invented the refrigerated truck?
Who invented the gas mask?
Who invented peanut butter?
Who is George Edward Alcorn?
What in the fuck have you invented or even contributed?
I really don't give a flying fuck what color they are I enjoy what they contributed

African-American female pioneers: Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan, and Mary Jackson, who were part of NASA's team of human "computers." This was a group made up of mostly women who calculated by hand the complex equations that allowed space heroes like Neil Armstrong, Alan Shepard, and Glenn to travel safely to space.

They didn't invent it, they assisted.

they assisted when whites failed and couldn't figure out the solution they were actually smarter than the machines whites invented.

It was all whites
Zero blacks assisting unless it was basketball
