      I believe it's Beethoven that's mixed race He's black and European.
      And I had a white school teacher tell me that my music teacher In the 1970s told me that and I looked into it and found out it was true.
      And Mr PAGE had a patent for his Plane before the Wright brothers ever flew there's Page was already flying And already had a patent for his air plane.
      And the first President of Mexico was A african who was Kidnapped and sold into slavery I believe he ended up in Europe living with Royal family
      And I believe his african Family were Royalty and then he ended up being A general in the Spains Army and he was so good that he went up against His own country at the time and beat them and ran them out of Mexico because he felt so much love for the Mexican people and their struggles that he became the general for the Mexican army After being there for so many years leading Spains army.

    • @Leif208
      @Leif208 7 месяцев назад

      @@ibamINV Not necessarily. I think you're giving too much credit to the patent system for approving anything "new." There were literally hundreds of patents for airship and airplane designs, most of which were never built and never flew (their mostly being either unfeasible or were simply nothing innovative). Also, the US patent system was separate from the European one and most of the airship inventions and successes occurred in Europe, so even if he was able file a patent in the US, it still was nothing new. But, let's see by my asking a simple question about Page. What did he come up with that was either new, original, or had never been done before, that a more advanced version hadn't already been invented, built, and flown, that would be worth remembering or celebrating?

      The reason he's ignored is because, 1) the Wright Bros invention was the first successful actual powered airplane, the same technology used today in ALL airplanes (which is by far the dominant air travel) and 2) HE DIDN'T INVENT ANYTHING. The airship had already been invented, AND CREATED AND FLOWN, at least as early at the 1600's (even the "ship" part, including the propeller, the engines, the dual balloons, everything). There's nothing that he "invented" that didn't already exist, and 3) unlike the Wright Bros, HE DIDN'T MAKE OR CREATE ANYTHING. ONLY ON PAPER. On paper is a far cry from actually inventing something. For decades prior to the Wright Bros. countless people invented powered flight, but until they actually created the invention and tried it out, they all failed.

      actually this was not the first airship balloon design , more than 50 years before this several balloon airships and one or two steam propeller powered in europe, I believe France was one place. The Wright Brothers were attempting to fly an airplane i.e. craft heavier than air so this is not an airplane and not comparable. There is a lot of history that is not commonly known, it's the individuals job to research and look for it. This is not sad, and it is not a mystery, it is a world wherein most people do not know what normal body temperature is or where the river Jordan is. Look at College students when they are asked on video many relatively not complex questions right here on youtube, it's just that humans are often nowhere near as clever as they think they are, which is why we need to seek the God mind , and abandon the human primate mind that leads to destruction. Just some thoughts.

    When we talk about aviation, it's important to recognize the women aviators who made significant contributions in the field. Although Amelia Earhart is often credited as the first female to obtain her aviator's license, this notion is false. History books tend to overlook the fact that Bessie Coleman, an African-American, earned her pilot's license six months prior to Earhart's achievement. Coleman, also known as Queen Bess or Brave Bessie, deserves the recognition for this incredible feat. It's crucial to acknowledge the true pioneers of aviation, and in this case, it was Bessie Coleman who paved the way for future generations.

    • @Leif208
      @Leif208 6 месяцев назад +2

      NO ONE thinks Amelia Earhart was the first female to get her license. Earhart became the first woman-and the only person since Charles Lindbergh-to fly nonstop and alone across the Atlantic. Hélène Dutrieu of Belgium is the first woman to pilot a real solo flight in an airplane (1909). 1909, March 8: Raymonde de Laroche of France becomes the world's first woman to earn a pilot's license. On September 16, 1910, Bessica Raiche made the first accredited solo flight by a woman in the United States. Harriet Quimby was the first American woman to earn a pilot's license (August 1911) and the first woman to fly solo across the English Channel. There were probably hundreds of women who either flew solo or earned their pilot's license before either Earhart or Coleman (in 1921). It was still an achievement, though.

      @@truthgreatheart2514 Did Elijah McCoy revolutionized industry in 1872 by inventing the first device to automatically oil machinery? No! The phrase "Real McCoy" arose to distinguish Elijah's inventions from cheap imitations? No.
      The oil cup, which automatically delivers a steady trickle of lubricant to machine parts while the machine is running, predates McCoy's career; a description of one appears in the May 6, 1848 issue of Scientific American. The automatic "displacement lubricator" for steam engines was developed in 1860 by John Ramsbottom of England, and notably improved in 1862 by James Roscoe of the same country. The "hydrostatic" lubricator originated no later than 1871.
      Variants of the phrase Real McCoy appear in Scottish literature dating back to at least 1856 - well before Elijah McCoy could have been involved.

      Regarding York, that's easy. Can you name for me the other white members of the Lewis and Clark expedition? Not likely. Why? Because the historical credit goes to the leaders of the expedition. Also, since he was illiterate, he couldn't write about himself. Also, after the expedition, "documentation concerning York is lacking for the years immediately following. About 20 years later, Clark told Washington Irving that he had freed York and set him up in business, giving him six horses and a large wagon to start a drayage business moving goods between Nashville and Richmond. However, according to Clark as reported by Irving, York was lazy, would not get up in the morning, did not take good care of his horses, longed to return to slavery, and died of cholera."

    As the video says, Charles Page's balloon based airship design isn't an airplane in structure or any design principle. The Wright Brothers worked on powered airplanes with wings, not lighter than air vehicles. They are not comparable. Page's ideas, lighter than air aircraft, date back to the Montgolfier Brothers who "flew" their balloons with human passengers in 1783, 80 years before Page's birth. Page's design was more advanced than the Montgolfier balloons in that his design allowed for maneuverability, but this had already been achieved by Frenchman Henri Giffard, who actually flew his airship in 1852, 12 years before Page's birth.
    Ferdinand Zeppelin had a functioning airship in the air and operating in 1900.
    This is not to knock Page's efforts, or deny the possibility that others may have labored to thwart his efforts, but we must tell the truth about everyone's contributions. Page should be applauded for his efforts, like so many who dared to try to conquer the sky.

    Not surprised at all. This just further substantiates that we truly are the chosen people of The Most High and that we would be subjected to mistreatment from the whole world just as Yashua Ha'Mashiach was. However, our time to be restored is VERY close. It has been written. Just look at all of the knowledge that is hitting the world like a tidal wave of all of our divine talents that Abba Yah has ALWAYS put inside of us! ✊🏾
