Garrett Morgan, a Black inventor, created two life-saving inventions—the gas mask in 1912 and the traffic signal in 1923—that are used daily worldwide, yet his name was deliberately kept off his own legacy due to racial discrimination when he tried to sell his inventions to southern fire departments.

INVENTED TWO THINGS THAT SAVE LIVES DAILY追加:
Every time you stop at a red light, you are using a black man's invention. Every time a firefighter enters a burning building with a breathing device, you are seeing his legacy. Garrett Morgan, gas mask 1912, traffic signal 1923.
Tried to sell to southern fire departments, sent a white man to demonstrate, refused to buy from a black inventor, name kept off his own legacy.
Comment yes if you knew his name, no if they kept him from you.
