Every day our lives depend on the innovations and discoveries made by scientists and inventors. This video tells the inspirational story of minority inventors past and present - many of whom made their contributions in the face of great adversity and with little in the way of personal resources. Minority inventors have always been part of the on-going story of invention in America, although their contributions have not always received the recognition that they deserve. The program is distributed to elementary and secondary schools nationwide.
