It was Fall 2019 PC (pre corona) and I found myself on the National Mall walking in a rainstorm. I had just left my favorite museum, the Hirshorn, and was headed to the African American Museum. I heard all the hype, but I had to see for myself. Real talk... I was not dissapointed. Upon entry I skipped the bottom levels because... well slavery, and went straight to the top. I needed to keep my spirits high. I was blown away The artifacts, art, living history! Its wild. Then I stumbled upon Garrett Morgan's display. I saw the original gas mask and it was like seeing the future in the past. It was on some Sankofa Technology Afrofuturism type ish. How many answers to our future lay in the technology of the past? Black people suffering the most from Coronavirus and are in greatest need of breathing devices. Ironic. Anyways, this a tribute piece to Garrett Morgan and all the other great inventors of the past. I was even motivated to do an updated version that had more of my color palette style. Much appreciation to the African American Museum as well. Im going back when we get off lockdown. #illustration #procreate #blackhistory #afrofuturism #garrettmorgan #africanamericanmuseum #coronavirus #breathe #creatorsgonecreate https://www.instagram.com/p/B-tJ3H0h5bT/?igshid=1oc38bo3jsf82

Garrett Morgan: Black History Month

His name should be a regular in every household as we see his invention or a variation of it on a daily basis. Garrett Morgan invented the first automatic three-way traffic signal system. This, my friends, is why we do these crafts with little ones. We made a traffic light to help them remember Morgan’s name and tie him to his invention. Spread these significant names to our history with friends and family!

Creativity, now that's something I love to speak. It is what we as #blackpeople have in us, it's the type of thinking that will help you persevere against all odds. Just when things look as if there is no where to go, it's the end of the line then BOOM, here comes the best part of being Black. You're Creativity to the rescue, we all have it, it's just a matter of searching ourselves. Next Up: Garrett Augustus Morgan, Sr. (March 4, 1877 [sometimes given as 1879] – July 27, 1963) was anAfrican American inventor and businessman as well as an influential political leader. Morgan's most notable invention was the gas mask originally named "smoke hood". Morgan also discovered and developed a chemical hair-processing and straightening solution. He created a successful company based on the discovery along with a complete line of hair-care products. Garrett Morgan invented the gas mask and the traffic signal: He was granted a patent on Nov. 20, 1923, to produce a T-shaped traffic signal after witnessing an accident between an automobile and a horse-drawn carriage. Morgan had to quit school at a young age in order to work full-time. Morgan was able to hire a tutor and continue his studies while working in Cincinnati. In 1895, he moved to Cleveland, Ohio, where he began repairing sewing machines for a clothing manufacturer. This experience with repairing sewing machine was the impetus for Morgan's interest in how things work. His first invention, developed during this period, was a belt fastener for sewing machines. Throughout this period of time, before his first patent in 1912, he was slowly building his reputation in Cleveland for his skill at fixing things. #garrettmorgan #blackhistory #blackeducation #blackpeopl #blackbusiness #blackcommunity #blackknowledge #blacklivesmatter #blackman #blackvoice https://www.instagram.com/p/Bti6qannWgj/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=rtvbqbi6ur5w

Happy birthday to Garrett Morgan. The inventor of the traffic light and the gas mask. #garrettmorgan #blackinventors #greatblackmen #blackhistoryeveryday #thingstheydontteachyou #treasureourown

Today I taught kids how to make gas masks from household materials! We also made traffic lights, but that's boring.

I'm also teaching kids how to protect themselves when they protest! Yay democracy!

I love the fact that we celebrate our Black heroes and she-roes during the month of February and I will do my part to celebrate and share the knowledge I have with others. But Black history isn't a month and it has to go farther than just February. Our history is too enriched and too magnificent to fit into one month. The stories of success that traveled through the Underground Railroad are far too vast to fit into one month. Dr. King's Dream is far too vivid to fit into one month. The countless amount of inventions that our ancestors created have changed our lives far too much to fit into one month. So with that said, happy Black History Month! And I'll be sure to do my part and share the knowledge and History that I know. #ourheroes #oursheroes #frederickdouglass #sojournertruth #harriettubman #natturner #webdubois #bookertwashington #williamstill #harrietbeecherstowe #idabwells #madamcjwalker #marymcleodbethune #TooMuchForOneMonth #langstonhughes #zoranealehurston #louisarmstrong #dukeellington #benjaminbanneker #lewislatimer #garrettmorgan #charlesdrew #georgewashingtoncarver #charleshwesley #FarTooMuchForOneMonth #thurgoodmarshall #marcusgarvey #drking #malcolmx #medgarevers #fredhampton #johnlewis #rosaparks #dorothyheight #ellabaker #shirleychisholm #jamesbaldwin #mayaangelou #hueypnewton #bobbyseale #muhammadali #jackierobinson #barackobama #michelleobama #oprahwinfrey #tupac #nas #jcole #kendricklamar #ourhistory #BlackHistory #blackhistorymonth
