Granville Woods
Sometimes called "the Black Edison," Granville Woods was awarded more than 60 patents, most concerning electrical systems for railways and telegraphs. His 1887 induction-telegraph allowed moving trains to communicate with dispatchers and with each other, dramatically reducing collisions. He defeated Thomas Edison in patent-infringement lawsuits twice and licensed inventions to General Electric, Westinghouse, and American Bell Telephone.
“There is no chance for the colored man in this country, and I am going to Canada.”
