All ethnicities are unique; they all have their own sense of eccentricity.
But there is one specific ethnic group amongst all ethnicities, whose physical features and attributes are distinctive considerably.
Why do many women of various nationalities want to be like the female counterpart within black heritage?
It is because the female counterpart of this specific ethnic group has physical assets that are patented —and are unlike any other races within the branch of femininity.
Even though we were once were in captivity,
we are not free—even though we have been granted freedom and an array of civil liberties.
We were born to create.
We create habitually.
Psalms 82:6 says “You are Gods and children of the most high”.
God is the creator; wouldn’t this also make us creators tentatively?
Embrace your predecessors history
and reveal your creativity.
It is apart of your nature, intrinsically.
Here are some examples that will give this statement a lot more validity:
In wars that included the utilization of chemical weapons, soldiers struggled to gasp.
Therefore, Garret Morgan invented the gas mask.
After witnessing a collision between an automobile and a horse carriage, Garret Morgan wanted to improve traffic safety.

People used to hang their clothes on a rope, a string, or wire to dry their attire.

On another note, eating certain things at inappropriate temperatures can really suck.
Therefore, Fredrick McKinley Jones invented refrigeration systems for trucks.
Dwelling in a comforting climate is always the goal.
To make climate control come to fruition, Fredrick Jones also invented the thermostat —broadening the concepts of temperature control.
It also would really be bad if mail delivery was solely contingent upon you answering the door.
To make life easier, Phillip Downing made the mailbox.
He also fixed a railway industry glitch
inventing the railway switch.
It was Elijah McCoy who was behind the famous phrase “The Real McCoy.”
He invented oil lubricants for steam engines and locomotives. Many tried to fabricate his products, so the phrase “The Real McCoy” was to ascertain what was the real thing, from what was a decoy.
People became tired of being burglary victims.
Therefore, in 1966 Marries Van Brittan paved the way for home security industry —by inventing the first video security system.
It was Marjorie Joyner who revolutionized the beauty industry.
She invented a wave machine that not only made black women feel good about their hair and looks, but it also redefined cosmetology.

Have you ever looked at the sky and wondered what was beyond earth’s atmosphere, and was there life hereafter?

Changing gears became annoying. There was one person who thought outside of the box —coming up with something which at the time seemed bizarre.
That person was Richard Spikes, who made the first automatic gear shaft for cars.
A customer sent his potatoes back alleging they were not crisp.
This inspired George Speck to invent the potato chip.
Referred to as the “Black Edison” once lived a man named Granville T. Woods.

Many people tried to come up with the perfect universal activity for summer fun.
It was Lonnie Johnson who invented the super soaker water gun.
But…creating is not just limited to inventing.
Creating is bringing any idea to the table with good intentions, so the world can benefit from it when it transforms from idea, to fruition.
We are familiar with the American saying “Let freedom ring.”
But the freedom didn’t totally ring for Black Americans until the movement to exercise our civil rights was bought forth by Rosa Parks, Fredrick Douglass, and Dr. Matin Luther King.
There was another Black American figure who was a force to be reckoned with. He wanted to end racial segregation and wanted to ensure at the high levels of the judiciary government, the powers to be were fair and impartial.
That person was a Black American associate justice within the Supreme Court system named, Thurgood Marshall.
Evidenced by the numbers statistically,
also accompanied by our innovative consistency, it is very apparent the black kulture is known for their inventive and creative ability.
One of the 48 laws of power is:
“let them do the work and you take the credit.” That is a concept of power that needs to edited because throughout history we were barely recognized and rarely monetarily credited. Throughout history and even in modern times, Black Americans barely get pennies off of their creations and inventions. Companies and large corporations make billions off of our ideas and we have to fight to be credited. In the long term, we also don’t benefit monetarily to our benefit off of our creations. We only get recognition by “the powers to be” putting “us” in their museums. But we also don’t monetize off of being displayed in their museums. They profit off of our inventions, and gain huge profits per diem from the spectators that purchase tickets to see us being showcased in their museums, then on top of that our works are often at the very top of multi-level museums instead of at the ground floor for others to be able to walk in and initially praise our works and see them.
Why do we create? Some of our inspirations are wanting to be rich and growing tiresome of lifetime of being poor.
I think the term rig is a compliment. Because that tells me when I lack resources, and when I have nothing, I can make and become something out of nothingness and do something that has been discredited, doubted, and never been done before. It only takes one individual to make processes more efficient than ever before.
Our minds were designed to push the boundaries and explore.
This causes us to invent which is defined as:
(1) the act of bringing ideas or objects together in a novel way to create something that did not exist before.
Furthermore, this creates opportunities for the future—putting hinges and knobs on entrances that never had doors. The world is yours.
We are B.L.A.C.K.
Born Legacies of A Creative Kulture
I have a dream that one day our creative minds will find a cure for cancer, and total recovery from stomach ulcers.
