Granville T. Woods wasn’t just an inventor—he was the Black engineer who made trains talk. Born in 1856, with no formal degree, Woods created communication systems that prevented train crashes and laid the foundation for electric subways, power lines, and modern rail networks.

Just silence. #africanamericanhistory #fypシ゚viral #blacktiktok #bla
