A Black Man Invented The Mobile Phone. Meet Him Here! by Reflect7: 12:25pm On Sep 14, 2023 |
A black son of Africa invented the MOBILE PHONE all of you use today, while assuming it was a white man who invented it. The mobile phone is just ONE of numerous inventions by blacks, such as refrigerators, light bulbs, blood banks, flushing toilets, touch-tone telephones, automatic gear shifts, traffic lights, and many others, falsely attributed to white people. Meet the Black Inventor Who Created the First Digital Cell Phone JESSE EUGENE RUSSEL Many people attribute the invention of the smartphone to Europeans, but in fact, the first digital cell phone was invented by an African American man named Jesse Eugene Russell. Russell was born on April 26, 1948, in Nashville, Tennessee. His family lived in a very poor and socially deprived part of Nashville. Fortunately, he got the opportunity to attend a summer education program at Fisk University and he did exceptional. Then, he moved on to study electrical engineering at Tennesse State University. He graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering (BSEE). In 1973, Russell went further in his academic achievements to obtain a Master's degree in Electrical Engineering (MSEE) from Standford University. While Russell was working as an engineer at AT&T-Bell Laboratories in 1988, he created the concept for the wireless digital phone and communication. At the time, mobile devices were mainly used in vehicles, so Russell designed a cell phone that could transmit signals between handsets and cell phone towers. Doing so would make mobile phones more handy and also more affordable. In a statement, Russell once said, "Most of the time people are not in their cars. I said, 'Well that seems like an easy problem to solve, right? Why don't we just take the phones out of the car and put them on the people.'" Russell is responsible for other innovations in the field of wireless communications systems. He also created a company based in New Jersey called incNETWORKS Inc, a broadband wireless communication system that focuses on 4G broadband wireless communications technologies, networks and services. https://www.blackhistory.com/2019/11/jesse-eugene-russell-black-inventor-who-created-digital-cell-phone.html#:~:text=Many%20people%20attribute%20the%20invention,socially%20deprived%20part%20of%20Nashville. |

Jideji: Because the racist western media who control the news, suppress this news, because he is a black man. They want you to keep believing the lie that white people invented everything you see around you. 2 Likes |

There are no inventors for mobile phones. It's a product of conglomerates of research and peer review Engineering and Scientific experiments. 2 Likes |

MadamExcellency:Martins cooper contributed to the now mobile phone but Alexander Graham Bell from 1800s invented the telephone and deserves all the credit. The rest were just contributors. 2 Likes |

tollyboy5: Garbage. That’s like saying the person who invented the canoe takes all the credit for sea vessels and submarines in operation today. |

tollyboy5: Really? Cars were built on the technology of mining, iron smelting and mathematics, which were African inventions, so Africans deserve the credit for cars, aircraft, and every metallic invention. While you are at it, Africans invented writing, so everything written today, from Shakespeare to physics textbooks, is an African achievement. If you require evidence of these, and other pivotal ancient African inventions, I’ll gladly post them. |

Reflect7: If he were still in Africa, he wouldn't have had the enabling environment to invent, patent and mass-produce even spoon or nail or pin or needle. Africans are brilliant, the imposed colonial structure holds us from being productive. |

sucemt: We have numerous inventions in Nigeria, and many sit in research institutes and universities as we speak, and they are patented. It is the mass production part that you could be right about. But I reckon private sector capital is insufficient as of now to leverage such innovations. This could change in the future with continued economic expansion. |
Re: A Black Man Invented The Mobile Phone. Meet Him Here! by Reflect7: 5:41pm On Sep 14, 2023 |
sucemt: He was disappointed that a black guy invented the cellphone, so he ran to drag out a white man from 1800 because that makes him feel better. He might even stop using his cellphone now since a black man invented it. |
