THIS VIDEO'S SUMMARY
"Ready to uncover the UNTOLD BLACK HISTORY of innovation? In this video, we spotlight the incredible stories of BLACK INVENTORS WHO CHANGED THE WORLD but whose contributions are often overlooked. We dive deep into 6 HIDDEN INVENTIONS created by Black innovators—from basic necessities to complex machinery—that you literally use EVERY DAY. Prepare to have your mind blown as we set the historical record straight!

These are Foundational Black Americans whose inventions became everyday essentials, while their names disappeared from American history.

In this video:

00:11 – Alexander Miles

Inventor of automatic elevator doors — a safety feature used in buildings worldwide.

01:42 – Jerry Lawson

Creator of the first cartridge-based video game system, shaping modern gaming.

03:25 – Dr. Marian Croak

Pioneer of Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), the technology behind modern calling.

05:04 – Sarah Boone

Inventor of an improved ironing board still used in homes today.

06:30 – Mary Fields

Trailblazer in logistics and delivery whose work reshaped mail routes and access.

07:29 – Frederick McKinley Jones

Inventor of refrigeration technology that made modern food transport possible.

These stories aren’t trivia.

They explain how Black innovation built America, while systems worked to separate invention from credit.

This is hidden Black history, told clearly and passed down — because knowing who built the world we live in changes how we see ourselves in it.

Watch in order.

These stories are blueprints.

This channel tells real Black American history — untold, hidden, and suppressed stories that were left out, buried, or deliberately erased from American history.

We focus on Foundational Black Americans who built families, land ownership, businesses, and Black economic power in a country shaped by Jim Crow laws, segregation, and systemic suppression. These were regular people living their lives — and in doing so, became extraordinary.

Our goal is not shock value, trivia, or surface-level Black history facts.

It is to pass down full-context history — Black history they never taught, because these stories carry power. They reveal how systems actually worked, how Black success was protected or punished, and why so much of this history was rewritten or erased.

This channel is part of Goose Goose Duck (GGD) — a storytelling and learning movement created to preserve Black American history in full color, through historical storytelling, long-form documentaries, and visual history, passed down across generations.

We believe hidden Black history is being erased on purpose — and that understanding American history untold matters for how we shape our future. This channel exists to preserve it, tell it clearly, and pass it forward.

Watch closely. Share thoughtfully.

These stories are blueprints."
