If you need a better black story, go to the stories less told about the Afro-Americans. Actually, Black History Month also called African American Heritage Month has been established to catch up with the silence of centuries. For example, the things we use daily and don’t even know we owe it powerfully to some creative Afro-Americans. The automatic elevator doors, traffic lights, iron board, home systems. But what do we know about the Afro-American inventors behind these cool objects

Yep, this Afro-American Heritage Month is about the cool black inventions for the MobileRecharge expat community. But before we talk about them, we need to drop some more news for our Afro friends abroad. There are promos running on mobile top-ups to Ethiopia and other destinations these days on MobileRecharge.com or the MobileRecharge app. Yet, everyone can send a top-up gift even if bonuses do not run out wild.

Why we need to talk about the less-obvious black deeds

Black history reputation is still under construction. That’s due to people who have been telling a truncated story for centuries. Also, because of the guilty politics that uninspired and unethical leaders practiced. When power is the aim, it is hard to “feel” and thus understand we’re all humans with the same fears and the same rights. And yes, there’s still room for real stories about Afro-Americans and black people generally.

Afro-Americans gave the world more than we know.  Afro-American contribution to the present is amazing, and this Black History Month we choose to tell the story of black inventions. We love them! We won’t talk about freedom of speech and liberty or what the diaspora thinks of this month (we already did that). That’s the most obvious lesson Afro-Americans have taught the world.

Let’s start with 6 black inventions that changed our lives
