If Biden is referring to the dispute of who really invented the lightbulb it’s argued that Joseph Swan was the first. Joseph Swan is white. I’m sure there are many great black inventors but history shouldn’t be viewed through a racial lens. It’s not healthy for society to keep a scorecard of accomplishments based on race.
In the black community, among the We Wuz Kangs/Israelite/WhoeverElseFag crowd they literally spew that "Lewis Latimer invented the lightbulb" or rather "You wouldn't have the light bulb today without Lewis Latimer"
Which is nonsense, because Lewis Latimer didn't even invent the carbon filament first, he just invented a way to produce them better. Which would become obsolete in a decade.
Lewis Latimer was a draftsman for Edison. He was Edisons technical drawer. Smart guy, but didn't invent the light bulb.
Try telling a dumb ass We Wuz Kangs black person that though lmfao.
