And let's make sure we cite the book so they can go read all about it.

James, P.P., Enslaved Inventors, Hidden Contributors. The Real McCoy: African-American Invention and Innovation, 1619-1930. Washington, D.C.: Smithsonian Institution Press, 1989, Chapter Three.

Do you actually believe black people are the only people ever robbed of their invention? Google that Sir...

I'll wait...

You see racism where you want to see it.

And yes, do cite a book. The last one you cited proved my point...

Oh you were done a few pages back. Sleep well my friend. Let's continue tomorrow. I'm down. This is fun. I'll get through to you eventually if you give me a fair shot. You won't be the first.
