> A black person invented ice hockey? Does anyone know who?

Looking on the Internet it looks like black men may have invented the Slap shot and played it back in the 1800s but its origins go back 5000 years. Google says “modern” hickey was invented by British soldiers in the 1850’s.

And here I thought my first girlfriend invented the hickey in 1957...
