@markizmarketing: Granville T. Woods, a brilliant and self-taught Black inventor who lived in a time when Black genius was often ignored, stolen, and erased. Despite facing many challenges, he made numerous important inventions that improved train safety and transportation, including the third rail and ways for trains to communicate with stations. However, his legacy was overshadowed by the more famous Thomas Edison, who even tried to claim credit for some of Woods’ inventions.

And the public schools system taught us, that Thomas Edison was the GOAT. 😳The lies just keep coming out. The curriculum is full of lies. Damn public schools.

A three foot “light bulb” hieroglyph found in Egypt’s capital shows Africans invented the lightbulb thousands of years before Edison. The pyramids were built by Black rulers, just look at the ancient statues anatomical features ie Negroid!

The truth is, the technology was here long before both men. Woods was a native who knew the technology used in America. The colonizers needed to decode and take credit for "improving the lives of the lower class."
Air blimps, subway systems, trolley, moving sidewalks, clean electricity and artificial lights, automobile, trains... all here before the white man came. FACTS!!!
