Everyone knows Thomas Edison and Alexander Graham Bell... Tesla, Ford and the Wright Brothers, but there are some amazing inventors and human beings in history who go relatively unmentioned and we need to fix that.

In this episode, Curator135 seeks to find out as much as he can about the great Garrett Morgan, the African American inventor behind more efficient sewing machines, the precursor to the gas mask and the traffic light. His inventions saved countless lives and on at least one occasion, he himself saved lives.
