Hello class today I will tell you about a man named Garrett Morgan
Garrett Morgan was a African american who was a inventor he was born in kentucky on march 4 1877
Mrs Morris what did Garret Morgan invent when he was alive?
well James one of his many inventions was the traffic light back in 1923 to have a better and easier way of having signals on where to drive
Wait Mrs Morris didnt Garrett make the gas mask?
Well Jessica it was a prototype of it before it was even called a gas mask it was called a "smoke hood" and was used during world war 1 protecting the Soilders from toxic gas.
And with that class is dismissed.
This was my black history project about Garrett Morgan and the sources I used was biography.com and storyboardthat.com they bothhelped me a lot with making this.
