Joy Reid went on her podcast the other day and told it like it is: white men can’t invent anything and stole everything from black people. With the exception of a couple of dudes such as Benjamin Frankin, Westinghouse, Benz, Salk, Edison, Tesla, Goodyear, Deere, Jobs, Bell, Whitney, Singer, Ford, Otis, and Jefferson just to name a few.
Reid also complained that white people stole black music. Well, Les Paul invented the electric guitar (thank you), Paul Tutmarc invented the electric bass. The upright bass has been around for centuries. The modern drum set was pioneered by Gene Krupa, the synthesizer invented by Roger Moog and the microphone was invented by Emile Berliner. All white dudes. The DJ turntable was invented by an Asian man, Shuichi Obata.
I can see how the white boys from Yes stole the chords from Rocket “88.” You got us Joy!
