LIFE WITHOUT BLACK PEOPLE!!!

A very humorous and revealing story is told about a group of
white people who were fed up with bLACK PEOPLE, so they
joined together and wished themselves away. They passed
through a deep dark tunnel and emerged in sort of a twilight
zone where there is an America without black people.

At first these white people breathed a sigh of relief.

'At last', they said, 'no more crime, drugs, violence and welfare.'

All of the blacks have gone! Then suddenly, reality set in.
The 'NEW AMERICA' is not America at all - only a barren land.


1. There are very few crops

that have flourished because the
nation was built on a slave-supported system.

2. There are no cities with tall skyscrapers because
Alexander Mils, a black man, invented the elevator, and
without it, one finds great difficulty reaching higher floors.

3. There are few if any cars because Richard Spikes, a black
man, invented the automatic gearshift, Joseph Gambol, also
black, invented the Super Charge System for Internal
Combustion Engines, and Garrett A. Morgan, a black man,
invented the traffic signals.

4. Furthermore, one could not use the rapid transit system
because its procurer was the electric trolley, which was
invented by another black man, Albert R. Robinson.

5. Even if there were streets on which cars and a rapid
transit system could operate, they were cluttered with paper
because an African American, Charles Brooks, invented the
street sweeper..

6. There were few if any newspapers, magazines and books
because John Love invented the pencil sharpener, William
Purveys invented the fountain pen, and Lee Barrage invented
the Type Writing Machine and W. A. Love invented the
Advanced Printing Press. They were all, you guessed it, Black.

7. Even if Americans could write their letters, articles and
books, they would not have been transported by mail because
William Barry invented the Postmarking and Canceling
Machine, William Purveys invented the Hand Stamp and Philip
Downing invented the Letter Drop.

8. The lawns were brown and wilted because Joseph Smith
invented the Lawn Sprinkler and John Burr the Lawn Mower.

9. When they entered their homes, they found them to be
poorly ventilated and poorly heated. You see, Frederick
Jones invented the Air Conditioner and Alice Parker the
Heating Furnace. Their homes were also dim. But of course,
Lewis Lattimer later invented the Electric Lamp, Michael
Harvey invented the lantern, and Granville T. Woods invented
the Automatic Cut off Switch. Their homes were also filthy
because Thomas W. Steward invented the Mop and Lloyd P. Ray
the Dust Pan.

10. Their children met them at the door - barefooted,
shabby, motley and unkempt. But what could one expect? Jan
E. Matzelinger invented the Shoe Lasting Machine, Walter
Sammons invented the Comb, Sarah Boone invented the Ironing
Board, and George T. Samon invented the Clothes Dryer.

11. Finally, they were resigned to at least have dinner
amidst all of this turmoil. But here again, the food had
spoiled because another Black Man, John Standard invented
the refrigerator..

Now, isn't that something? What would this country be like
without the contributions of Blacks, as African-Americans?

Martin Luther King, Jr. said, 'by the time we leave for
work, millions of Americans have depended on the inventions
from the minds of Blacks.'

Black history includes more than just slavery, Frederick
Douglass, Martin Luther King, Jr., Malcolm X, and Marcus
Garvey & W.E.B. Dubois.
