Below are a List of things invented by black People OUR SCHOOLS NEED TO TEACH BLACK KIDS AS WELL AS OTHER RACES HOW MUCH BLACKS CONTRIBUTED TO SOCIETY AND ARE INVENTORS. WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL I DID NOT HEAR OF THIS...sorry but I only heard of what whites invented and their contributions I only learned blacks were slaves and civil rights movement. dont you think our schools need to teach more about the black culture and change the history books? maybe black kids can see and grow up knowing the fact they are just as valuable and important too.
