A while back (I think within the past three months) there was a very interesting article posted here about inventions by white men.
I have not had any luck finding it through FR search. Does anyone remember it? Does anyone have it? Can anyone post a link to it?
Thanks.
It was before recorded history, but women probably invented most or all of these: pottery, bread making, sewing, tanning hides, weaving, basket making, etc.
Good chance.
Hide Tanning would be a joint effort......Would love to know how that was discovered. LOL.
Such as AIDS?

Some African tribes are more equal than others. At the top of the heap were the Luo, of East Africa, who lorded it over the others, powered by a religion they'd imported from some swarthy white guys in the Middle East, which sanctioned slavery.
David Maraniss listed Barack Obama's racial background as 50% Luo, 37.4% English, 4.4% German, 3.125% Scottish, 1.56% Welsh, 0.195% Swiss, and 0.097% French. It was the English who in 1807 ordered the Royal Navy to suppress the slave trade.
All other subgroups of humanity would still be beating their dinner (or their neighbors) to death with sticks without the advancements from these primary human groups.

Probably he killed it, they skinned it, and she did the flensing, rubbing with various substances, and chewing it soft.
Most likely.

What? - I thought everything from the railroad coupler to the stop light was invented by disadvantaged blacks - things invented by whites are probably listed in some footnote somewhere....
bkmk
Well yes. But I'm more interested in inventions by white men for the narrow purpose of countering all the racist/race-baiting left wing propaganda by militant black academics, politicians, entertainers, community organizers and their white liberal enablers, who have basically declared war on white men (which is exactly the proper description of so-called "White Privilege" accusations).
And also for countering the left wing tripe by the so-called "feminist" left (including all the feminist icons who betrayed their "sisters" by fellating Bill Clinton when he was legitimately attacked for his appalling history of sexual harassment and assault).
So here's the "Justice Challenge": Any leftist racist/race-baiting black person, white enabler and lefty feminist should stick to their . . . um . . . principles and avoid using ANY invention by a white man.
If all white men are automatically subject to claims of privilege, demeaning stereotypes, pejorative name calling and exclusion from things that black people have access to under law (i.e. affirmative action, BET, Black History Month, etc.) then QUIT USING OUR STUFF.
PUNKS.
