Too scared to answer the question.
No, I actually don't know. I googled it, and there seems to be some disagreement on the subject. So why don't you tell me?
Well obviously it was a black guy otherwise you wouldn't have brought it up.
Answer the question.
I have no idea.
Too scared to answer the question. So now I'm going to teach you a lesson on how much whites have revised history.
Who got to the North Pole first, Frederick A. Cook or Robert E. Peary? In my Findings column, I suggest that the answer is neither. We can debate their claims and consider other candidates here.
Peary’s claim was championed by The Times and certified by the National Geographic Society (which both helped sponsor his expedition). It was formally accepted by the U.S. Congress, which promoted him to rear admiral and gave him a corresponding pension.
Who Was First at the North Pole?
So according to white history Robert Peary was the first to the North Pole.
In 1909, 23 men joined Peary’s final Arctic expedition, leaving New York City onboard the
Roosevelt bound for Greenland. Only five men were with Peary on the final sled dash north, and Henson was the only non-Inuit. Exhausted, Peary was unable to walk and had to be pulled on a sledge for the final days of the journey. At the very last, he sent Henson ahead as a scout. After decades of near fatal struggle, reaching the actual Pole itself seemed from Henson's recollections a study in anti-climax: “I was in the lead that had overshot the mark by a couple of miles. We went back then and I could see that my footprints were the first at the spot.”
So according to the trip record Matthew Henson got there first.
Matthew Henson: First Man on the North Pole?
This is an example of how whites have revised history. You have lived a lie and that's the way it is.
