Synopsis

Stirred by the Summer of 2020’s disturbing developments in racial inequality, Steve Mitnick started exhaustively researching the founding father of our industry largely forgotten because of his race, Lewis Latimer. Now available for you to read, for free, “Lewis Latimer, The First Hidden Figure” tells the story of this Forrest Gump of the Second Industrial Revolution that was literally everywhere, from decisively helping Alexander Graham Bell secure the telephone patent, to competing with Thomas Edison with a superior light bulb filament and manufacturing process that Edison adopted, to then being hired by Edison to lead his patent defenses and offenses.

Uniquely respected by the European American captains of industry of the late nineteenth century and early twentieth, as well as the African American intellectuals of the period, at a time when blacks endured terrible injustices and violence, Latimer’s inspiring story is an important addition to today’s conversations about how our society can progress to the point in which all Americans are free to reach for their greatest potential.

This books is available to read for free by going to the Public Utilities Fortnightly website and searching “Lewis Latimer.”
