Men of colour did not have the rights to patent their idea at that time. The answer made him seem like it’s his fault when we know very well it was a matter of allowing certain races of obtaining the rights over others at the time.

I guess the lesson here is first to discover it; first to patent it. No money for a lawyer, do it yourself is in order.

Player Teresa611, Mr. Bose may not have received his due as to the invention of the radio... but he was named for the greatest innovation to radio there may ever be. (The Bose Wave Radio)! I have one with quad speakers. There is nothing else like it! Thank you Mr. Bose!
