Word is people perish because of lack of knowledge. But what happens when the knowledge is suppressed, diluted and even hidden from us?

DID YOU KNOW

Dr. Carter G. Woodson created Black history week the 2nd week of February in 1926 to coincide with the birthdays of Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass.

In 1976 it became Black history month.

January 30, 1910: Granville T. Woods died of a cerebral hemorrhage at Harlem Hospital in New York City, after having sold a number of his devices to such companies as Westinghouse, General Electric and American Engineering.

Until 1975, his resting place was an unmarked grave, but historian M.A. Harris helped to raise funds, and persuaded several of the corporations that used Woods' inventions to donate funds to purchase a headstone. It was erected at St. Michael's Cemetery in Elmhurst, Queens.

Granville Tailer Woods was an inventor who held more than 60 patents in the U.S. He was the 1st African American mechanical and electrical engineer after the Civil War.

Self-taught, he concentrated most of his work on trains and streetcars. One of his notable inventions was a device he called the Synchronous Multiplex Railway Telegraph, a variation of induction telegraph which relied on ambient static electricity from existing telegraph lines to send messages between train stations and moving trains.

His work assured a safer and better public transportation system for the cities of the United States.

INVENTIONS & PATENTS:
Granville T. Woods invented and patented Tunnel Construction for the electric railroad system, and was referred to by some as the "Black Edison".

Over the course of his lifetime Granville Woods obtained more than 60 patents for inventions including an automatic brake, an egg incubator, and for improvements to other technologies such as the safety circuit, and phonograph.

LEGACY:
🏅Baltimore City Community College established the Granville T. Woods scholarship in memory of the inventor.

🏅In 2004, the New York City Transit Authority organized an exhibition on Woods which utilized bus and train depots, and an issue of four million MetroCards commemorating the inventor's achievements in pioneering the third rail.

🏅In 2006, Woods was inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame.

🏅In April 2008, the corner of Stillwell and Mermaid Avenues in Coney Island was named Granville T. Woods Way.
