March 30, 2010 -- From Mark, a reader, from Washington, DC, who is affiliated with the site.
Hello:
As we approach Black History Month I was wondering if you would consider adding a link to the Black Inventor Online Museum (blackinventor.com). The site profiles more than 60 Black inventors and their contributions to society over the last 300 years.
Thank you,

The Black Inventor Online Museum provides a look at the great and often unrecognized leaders in the field of invention and innovation. For more than 300 years, black inventors have served as pioneers in the field of science and have made enormous impacts on society. As African Americans sought freedom and equality, many among them, scientists, educators and even slaves, developed the tools and processes that helped to shape the modern agricultural, industrial and technological landscape. While some are famous, many remain unknown, but their contributions have assured that their stories are not only about black history, but about world history.

Who invented Twinkies? When did the first McDonald’s open? When was George Mortimer Pullman, inventor of the Pullman sleeping car, born? These and so many more food and eating inventions are explored at Tasteful Inventions. Sit back and enjoy! (site will be updated the first week of Inventors’ Month in August)

On the Tasteful Inventions blog, I attempt to explore food inventions, some times, rather obscure as they may be. For instance, this month I posted about the invention of condensed soup.
Famous Black Inventors

This site celebrates the rich legacy of African-American inventors, with biographies and images provided for each entry. Many of these black innovators did not receive the recognition enjoyed by their white counterparts. Famous Black Inventors is an ideal site for students and teachers to learn about inventions by people of color in the United States.

The history of everything from the invention of bullet-proof vests to frisbees can be found on the site. This is one of the most interesting sites on the Web for kids.
