My Great Grandmother knew Garrot. In fact she rented a house that he owned and they were good friends
Darcia Mbaye 😂
Who cares???
@@lucilianogueira3072 Your Mom cares.
We care that’s amazing
Wasn’t he the son or grandson of John Hunt Morgan? And his mother a slave?
The traffic lights were invented since 1868
He got first patent , but their was other systems before. Garret achievement is pioneering..
Morgan had witnessed a serious accident at an intersection, and he filed a patent for a traffic control device having a third "warning" position in 1922. The patent was granted in 1923,[20] though this was not the first system with a warning, a three-light system being invented in 1920 by William Potts, and previous systems having audible warnings. William Potts (May 1883 - 1947), a Detroit police officer, is credited with inventing the modern, three-lens traffic light in Detroit in 1920. (The two-lens, red/green traffic signal was invented in London in 1868). In 1920, Potts designed the first four-way, three-color traffic signal tower, which was installed at the intersection of Woodward and Michigan Avenues in Detroit in October 1920.[2]
John Peake Knight (13 December 1828 - 23 July 1886) was an English railway manager and inventor, credited with inventing the traffic light in 1868.
So what are u proving
@@friendly1517 how can you invent something that was already invented?
@@davidgrice9270 their is a different between a smart phone and a telephone ☎️ dummy
You are right. He kinda improved the traffic light. Also does this count as a technological innovation? Or do you know one I can do?
@davidgrice9270
Lester Wire 1912 Utah
further more William pots didnt invent the traffic signal either he just added the yellow light
Huh? Potts invented the yellow light years before Garretts “Arms” hand cranked system
William Potts is actually credited with this, in DETROIT, credited with inventing the modern, three-lens traffic light in Detroit in 1920. At about the same time, Garrett Morgan of Cleveland, Ohio realized the need to control the flow of traffic. A gifted inventor and reportedly the first African American to own an automobile in Cleveland, Ohio, he invented the electric automatic traffic light.
@The Truth He's not lying, his info is just off. Morgan invented a different model but, it wasn't the first ever.
Potts did invent his own version of the stop light but, it was not the first. www.livescience.com/57231-who-invented-the-traffic-light.html
Thanks for the link... insightful!
Morgan's signal was not automatic, it was hand-operated by a crank on the pole by a policeman. It was kind of cool but not real practical an never caught on.
What u not gonna do is take away from my bloodline. Garret Morgan is my family and he is who invented the streetlight. Don’t be fooled people. GAIN FAITH
this is a lie see the real history
look for the patent where is your proof first octrooi patent was from white man lester wire
@Ho Chi Wang dumbass why asses
? are you gay fish?
He wasn't even the first to invent the 3 signal light, they were in place in Detroit and London in 1920, his patent was 1923
I think he also invented the first gas mask
KLAUS SCHULZ INVENTED THE GASMASK IN FIRST WORLD WAR
Actually a Greek philosopher invented it in 4 ad or so
He die make a form of gas mask but the one we use was invented by a British physician for ww1
Potts invented the first three-color traffic light in 1920. It was installed at Woodward and Michigan Avenues in Detroit. Please do some basic research.
Three years late, but they should’ve said that he invented the first electric traffic light.
How's that? The first 3 light traffic light was installed in New York on 1914?
And the first one was made in 1860's ish.
And what they said was simply inaccurate, before him people had traffic lights, and used them. Globalists Agenda Confirmed.
O
Lol
all of these lights were very different in nature the first was a lamp system that was moved around by the police. next you have pots who added a third light which was yellow caution light. Morgan invented the first automatic three signal traffic light which he sold to GE for 40000
traffic lights were invented in 1920 by someone else btw
Thank you 🙏
Wikipedia has it as "8/5/1914 In Cleveland, Ohio, the first electric traffic light is installed."
So who brought order to the roadside a black man
Don't forget the door knob
Haha
Your kidding right??
@@lucilianogueira3072
Nope. They now claim the door knob was invented by a black man
This is blatantly not true. Why Lie?
Lies. It wasn't even close to being the first patented traffic light, it wasn't the first in use, and it's nothing like the traffic light design that would be widely adopted. This is a lie to make black people feel more important.
Erm he invented it 😂😂 so why u mad for 😂😂 let black people claim the invention 😂😂
@@yikesomarz264 Can you not read? He didn't invent it.
Imdb Truth I can tho 😂😂 and yes they did so why u mad for 😂😂 listen as Middle Eastern person we invented a lot of things but the white man got credit for it 😂😂 see the white man take credit for everything
@@yikesomarz264 His device was shaped like a cross, had no lighting system, and had to have a person standing there operating it manually... His device was not even close to being the first parent on file for a traffic signal, nor did it look anything like the traffic signals that would become widely adopted. So if his version of the traffic signal wasn't the first, nor the best of it's time, nor was it widely adopted, then how exactly should this guy get the credit for "inventing *the* traffic signal"? He shouldn't, because he didn't...
Imdb Truth I beg u please do your research Cus u right now u look like one of the dumbest kid 😂😂😂 lol can’t stool laughing at u how dumb u sound 😂😂 please do your research
he didn t invent the traffic light, that did a englishman
Black people are the best!!!!! Facts tho
Pop quiz: who invented the gas mask???
Rio Finance who invented the cloth that he used?
german carl schulz invented gas mask in 1898
carlo vandenbrink I thought these were for chemicals though
ALLINVENTIONS DONE BY WHITE PEOPLE steammachine microscope computer internet car all inventuions after 1911 are done with help of former white inventions like screws and this black iinventors with white dna used white inventions
jazz invented by sousa who invented the saxophone troubadours europe invented rapmusic in 1400
Lester Wire invented thr traffic light ❤
These people are so misinformed. The first traffic light was in London. And Morgon saw an accident between a horse Carrage and an Automobile. He wanted to prevent such accidents so he came up with his version.
Ho Chi Wang he ADVANCED it. Made it better therefore in my eyes he CREATED it
@Ho Chi Wang HE WAS NOT BLACK HE WAS LITE BROWN OF HIS WHITE DNA
@@carlovandenbrink8779 so Black then
Not true,he did not advance it. 3 lens lights were already in use in Detroit
It was actually a white fella named William Potts who made them in 1920. Stop spreading misinformation please.
Thank God for black people
Helen O Connor 😂😂😂😂😂lol you put the false link down every Black inventer videos 😂😂😂 what about this Benin neurosurgeons surgical robots😕👉 th-cam.com/video/tXdCNytJfxU/w-d-xo.html
British Women yes.. you need to Thank God for our creation
You must be thanking middle east Asian, southeast Asian for without them the world would still be hunter gatherers
SALT LAKE CITY HAD WORKING TRAFFIC LIGHTS SINCE 1912. 5th AVE IN MANHATTAN HAD WORKING 3 LIGHT TRAFFIC TOWERS IN 1920. YOU ALSO HAD THE POTTS TRAFFIC LIGHT SYSTEM BEFORE GARRETT MORGAN'S. MORGAN PATENTED A PIECE OF PAPER IN 1923. ITS ALL A LIE. WHEN THEY STARTED TO WRITE BLACK HISTORY YEARS BACK. WHITE LIBERALS AND BLACK RADICALS CONJURED UP THESE LIES AND NEVER REALIZED THAT COMPUTORS WOULD ADVANCE LATER ON, WHERE BEFORE IN ORDER TO DISPROVE SOMETHING YOU WOULD HAVE TO SPEND WEEKS COMBING THROUGH BOOKS IN THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS TO SUBSTANTIATE THESE FACTS, BUT GOT CAUGHT IN THEIR LIES WITH THE ADVENT OF COMPUTORS. BLACK HISTORY IS VERY RICH AND HIGHLY ADMIRED. THEY DIDN'T HAVE TO FABRICATE LIES WHICH IN TURN WOULD DISCREDIT BLACKS AND THEIR TRUE ACHIEVEMENTS. BEWARE OF MANY THINGS THAT ARE CLAIMED IN BLACK HISTORY AS WITH GARRETT MORGANS CLAIM, THEY WERE FABRICATED LIES AND BLACK HISTORY IS FILLED WITH LOTS OF IT. IT WAS A COMMON PRACTICE FOR PEOPLE TO PATENT IDEAS AS WITH GARRETT MORGANS PATENT IN 1923. PEOPLE DID THIS JUST IN CASE SOMETHING FROM THEIR PATENT WAS EVER TO BE USED THEY COULD COLLECT ROYALTIES AND PROFIT. THE TRAFFIC LIGHT HAD ALREADY EXISTED. WHAT NOBODY KNOWS IS THAT GARRETT MORGAN PATENTED WORKING ARMS DISPLAYING STOP AND GO JUST IN CASE SOMEONE WAS COLOR BLIND. THIS WAS THE BASIS OF HIS PATENTED SINCE COLOR BLIND PEOPLE COULD NOT SEE COLORS. BUT MANUFACTURERS OVERCAME THE COLOR BLIND ISSUE BY STACKING THE LIGHTS FROM TOP TO BOTTOM WHERE TOP IS RED, MIDDLE YELLOW AND GREEN AT THE BOTTOM. I'M JUST TELLING YOU TO BEWARE OF WHAT IS CLAIMED IN BLACK HISTORY.
@@5822huron whites invebted electricity , the lamps, the steel used to make the lamppost etc etc morgan had much white dna in his body
how does it workand how did the yellow light get invented
LESTER WIRE invented the traffic light
Garrity Morgan is a hero and is made african Americans prood
he steals other s inventions
? that makes proud
?
I'm sure this made white people mad
Not really. The guy who actually invented the Traffic Light was white. Fact, most of the inventions that black people claim black people invented were actually invented by white people. One funny example, there was a list of black inventors being posted in Instagram. Over 90% of the list was wrong and misleading. On that list it claimed that Robert F Flemming Jr invented the guitar. The problem was that Mr Flemming was born in 1839...180 years ago. But the oldest known guitar is over 400 years old. Mr Flemming did create a guitar, but not invent the first guitar.
A Ro the fact he got that from an instagram post🤣
Robert H. When you say MOST were invented by whites that’s a bold statement. Since the white man met the black man he’s been busy trying to oppress and discredit him. Not vice versa. The guitar my friend was invented in Africa and that’s irrefutable. The earliest form of guitar was the Krar Harp invented in Mauritania in the 9 century. Later in Spain in the 1500’s a newer design was created called the Guitarro. Robert Fleming created the MODERN DAY guitar design which is still used today. That’s the reason he gets the credit for it. Fleming’s guitar designed was created to produce a bigger sound than the previous guitar versions.
yes because it s a lie and morgan used steel electricity all ready invented by whites
@TheTruth nazi
? if someone tells truth he s a nazi ? so stupid
he was quite a guy indeed!
Look at the whole picture.
Filipino design stop light by valentino delos santos
So your saying horses and goat's and camels was the thing until salvation and delivance came by a black man who created these things and brought order to the world
* you're. Is it really that hard to spell ?
You ain’t the first until it’s official and gets what my family (GARRET MORGAN) was the first cus why... he was official. ANYONE BEFORE HIM MERELY ONLY HAD THE BLUEPRINT .. BUT GARRET, MY FAMILY.. BROUGHT THE FINAL OFFICIAL VERSION.. so yes GARRET MORGAN IS THE INVENTOR OF THE STREETLIGHT WE USE TODAY. You’re all welcome from me and my bloodline. If u have a hard Time not trynna delete the past just think about it like this... who invented the airplane?! I’ll wait....
Lol!!! Your hilarious. How is it possible Garrett yo “family” invented it? His was the blueprint!!! It was NEVER manufactured!! Also, Potts was being USED all over Detroit YEaRS before Morgans “blueprint”. Also, no proof of 40,000 purchase
So no one and I do mean no one had the knowledge came by a black man why do you think that is that only through black slaves this wisdom came to the world you mean none of the slave masters not even his own slave owner could come up with this knowledge and wisdom amazing
Alright, another reason not to like them. Thank you!
this is the best
If it were true, but it's not.
Trill 😎
test
if a white man invents steel another white man invents coloured glas another white man invents relais alternator and one man combines this togehter ??? is he then an inventor or a thief traffic light invented years before morgan see us patent registry
Ohio ☠️☠️☠️
Instead of accusing CLEVELAND 24 NEWS of wrongly praising a BLACK MAN they could have instead said that a CLEVELANDER RESIDENT is being given undue credit.
Oh boy more black inventions
He also made a patten for a gas mask that is widely used today yes the gas mask was already on invented but his patten invention was superior and became used same as the traffic light 🚦 his patten version was better and became widely used
I hope he benefited from this invention, we all know how white folks be like.
Yes we all know what white folks be like... Such as that William Potts fella who invented 3 colour traffic lights 3 years prior.
He sold the patent to GE for $40K, equivalent to like $600k in today's dollars. they never made a single one but used the patent to squeeze others out of the business. Dick move on Edison's part but hey, capitalism.
@@jesushussein895NO proof
Garrett Morgan improved the traffic light and had the resilience and savvy to secure the patent. No small feat in 1923 America. Introduce kids to inventor and businessman Mr. Morgan at th-cam.com/video/MBAJmkJh218/w-d-xo.html
No one used his hand cranked version. Nobody bought the invention (GE? Where’s the proof?). Potts had an ELECTRIC automatic version years before. With a yellow light!! (Not hand cranked arms that we don’t use today)
This is untrue. This man did not invent "the traffic light." He held a patent related to a traffic control device. No one person invented "the traffic light." There are probably hundreds of patents related to traffic control devices. He had one of them.
