BLACK HISTORY MONTH.

[mahamed99_sex]

A very humorous and revealing story is told about a group of white people


who were fed up with African Americans, so they joined together and wished
themselves away.




They passed through a deep dark tunnel and emerged in sort of a twilight


zone where there is an America without black people.




At first these white people breathed a sigh of relief.




At last, they said, No more crime, drugs, violence and welfare.




All of the blacks have gone! Then suddenly, reality set in. The


"NEW AMERICA" is not America at all-only a barren land.




1. There are very few crops that have flourished because


the nation was built on a slave-supported system.




2. There are no cities with tall skyscrapers because Alexander Mils,


a black man, invented the elevator, and without it, one finds great


difficulty reaching higher floors.




3. There are few if any cars because Richard Spikes, a black man,


invented the automatic gearshift, Joseph Gambol, also black, invented


the Super Charge System for Internal Combustion Engines, and Garrett


A. Morgan, a black man, invented the traffic signals.




4. Furthermore, one could not use the rapid transit system because


its procurer was the electric trolley, which was invented by another


black man, Albert R. Robinson.




5. Even if there were streets on which cars and a rapid transit system


could operate, they were cluttered with paper because an African


American, Charles Brooks, invented the street sweeper.




6. There were few if any newspapers, magazines and books because


John Love invented the pencil sharpener, William Purveys invented


the fountain pen, and Lee Barrage invented the Type Writing Machine


and W. A. Love invented the Advanced Printing Press. They were all,


you guessed it, Black.




7. Even if Americans could write their letters, articles and books, they


would not have been transported by mail because William Barry invented


the Postmarking and Canceling Machine, William Purveys invented the


Hand Stamp and Philip Downing invented the Letter Drop.




8. The lawns were brown and wilted because Joseph Smith invented the


Lawn Sprinkler and John Burr the Lawn Mower.




9. When they entered their homes, they found them to be poorly ventilated


and poorly heated. You see, Frederick Jones invented the Air Conditioner


and Alice Parker the Heating Furnace. Their homes were also dim. But of


course, Lewis Lattimer later invented the Electric Lamp, Michael Harvey


invented the lantern and Granville T. Woods invented the Automatic Cut


off Switch.




Their homes were also filthy because Thomas W. Steward invented the


Mop & Lloyd P. Ray the Dust Pan.




10. Their children met them at the door-barefooted, shabby, motley and


unkempt. But what could one expect? Jan E. Matzelinger invented the


Shoe Lasting Machine, Walter Sammons! invented the Comb, Sarah


Boone invented the Ironing Board and George T. Samon invented the


Clothes Dryer.




11. Finally, they were resigned to at least have dinner amidst all of this


turmoil. But here again, the food had spoiled because another Black Man,


John Standard invented the refrigerator.




Now, isn't that something? What would this country be like without the


contributions of Blacks, as African-Americans?




Martin Luther King, Jr. said, "by the time we leave for work, Americans


have depended on the inventions from the minds of Blacks."




Black history includes more than just slavery, Frederick Douglass,


Martin Luther King, Jr., Malcolm X, and Marcus Garvey & W.E.B. Dubois

Invented the comb? We've had combs for thousands of years, and here someone claims a Black American invented the comb!

What an utter pile of Afrocentric trollop.
