Here's something they left out of the history books.
Thomas Edison held over 1,000 patents. He's celebrated
as one of the greatest inventors in American history.
His name is on schools, awards, and a national park.
And a lot of what made him famous was built by people
you have never heard of.
This episode of Previously On Earth tells the whole
story. The invention factory at Menlo Park where
dozens of workers built what one man got credit for.
Lewis Howard Latimer, the Black inventor whose
improved lightbulb filament made electric light
affordable for ordinary families — and whose name
almost nobody knows. The broken promise to Nikola
Tesla that set off one of the ugliest business wars
in American history. The public animal electrocutions.
The electric chair, lobbied for by a man who spent
his whole life opposing the death penalty — because
it was good for business.
Edison was brilliant. He was also ruthless. And the
people who stood behind him and built what he took
credit for deserve to finally have their names said
out loud.
This is Previously On Earth. Episode 4.
