In this video, we explore the groundbreaking contributions of African-American scientists who have transformed the world of technology. First, we learn about James West, the inventor of the electret microphone, whose 1960s innovation powers 90% of today’s audio devices, from smartphones to hearing aids. Next, we dive into the work of Mark Dean, an IBM engineer who developed the ISA systems bus, making PCs capable of connecting to peripherals like printers and modems, and later designed chips capable of a billion calculations per second. Finally, we celebrate Jerry Lawson, the inventor of the video game cartridge system, which revolutionized the gaming industry by introducing interchangeable cartridges. These trailblazers have left an indelible mark on technology, shaping the devices and systems we rely on every day.

  1. So it looks like you could report on all the Actual Inventions in about 3 minutes. Improvements are not actual inventions. Many of those improvements were flops. So keep it real and search for other things that can possibly boost your self worth.

  2. not much truth here. the afro americans really never invented anything. they have been involved in copy some designs from others and done some modifications and called it theirs but thats all .

  3. Interesting that his is the video some zero sent me declaring how "blacks invented everything". He claimed white people are evil and the source of all misery in the world – lots of woke garbage, things that a few people these days say out loud and think they don't sound utterly idiotic expressing in public, so say them despite that fact. It's nice to give African Americans recognition for deserved accomplishments, but the whole idea of "Black History Month" is insulting and trivializing to African Americans. Are they really so weak they need such special treatment? Maybe someday we'll be beyond thinking we need videos like this one, which give recognition to a person just because he happened to be born black. I suspect if a video were made celebrating all the inventions of white Americans, it would be a bit on the long side, and dull because it's so unexceptional. The whole thing was a bad idea.
