This is a
story of a little boy named Theo, who woke up one morning and asked his mother,
“Mum, what if there were no black people in
the world?”
Well, his mother thought about that for a moment and then said,
“Son, follow me around today and let’s just see what it would be like
if there were no black people in the world” mum said.
“Now go get dressed and we will get started.” Theo ran to his room to
put on his clothes and shoes.
His mother took a look at him
and said, “Theo where are your shoes? And those clothes are all rumpled. Son, I
must iron them”. However, when she reached for the ironing board it was no
longer there.” You see SARAH BOONE, a black woman, invented the ironing
board and JAN E, MATZELON GER, a black man
invented the shoe lacing machine, oh well!’’ she said,
“Please go and do something to
your hair. “Theo ran into his room to comb his hair, but the comb was not there.”
she said, “you see, WALTER SUMMONS, a black man
invented the comb. Theo decided to just brush his hair, but the brush was gone.
You see! LYDIA O.NEWMAN,
