X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Acclaim was sometimes elusive for inventor
 s working under government or corporate employers. As a condition of emplo
 yment\, they were usually required to sign a release relinquishing their r
 ights of ownership and profit. With no patent number or other record of po
 ssession\, it is difficult to discern the degree of credit an innovator de
 serves. A person of color faced even more hurdles to receive credit due to
  racism.</p>\n<p>&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>In terms of modern times\, the collective
  work of African American contributors to science and invention is so exte
 nsive that it is impossible to live a full day in any part of the world wi
 thout experiencing the benefits of their ingenuity. Gregory Edmonds will t
 ell you about some of these impactful inventions that will no doubt surpri
 se you.</p>\nhttps://columbus.libnet.info/event/17536238
