Download or read book The ABC s of African American Inventions written by Kenneth McClelland and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-02-17 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the month of February we celebrate the accomplishments of people of color during Black History Month, a tradition started by Dr. Carter Woodson in 1926. Yet while some are content to set aside only one month out of the year to recognize these accomplishments, perhaps they're unaware of how different the world would be if not for the contributions of African Americans to our everyday way of life. The subject matter of this book is meant to help younger children learn the alphabet and stir their creativity, while at the same time offering a glimpse to the older readers, of the African American influence to our collective history. To be clear, the Inventors and Inventions featured in this book are in no way a complete compilation of the contributions made by people of color, but they're merely representative of some of their innovative ideas and creative devices. It is my hope that this simple book will reveal a sense of belonging that some people of color may not realize is rightfully theirs, while at the same time inspiring every reader to search their mind for the next great invention that could change our lives and perhaps even the world. History has shown us that rather than large corporations, it's often the common man or woman who first recognizes the need for something new or innovative. So take the time to look around you, and you just may discover that the ideas for change are as abundant as the needs that inspire them.
