Thank you to Jonathan Rothwell, Andre Perry, and Mike Andrews of The Brookings Institution for your research and reassessment "of the extraordinary contributions of Black people in the development of the United States as well as global technological advancements."

In our ongoing trajectory of overcoming, as you note, your work helps to dismantle the bias and whitewashing of who invents and who has contributed to the building of our great nation."
