Black Americans have contributed to the foundation and framework of how we live, work, and play, but often, those stories go unreported and unnoticed. Black History Month presents an opportunity to elevate the voices and stories of Black Americans who have shaped the construction industry and celebrate their impact.
From highly useful inventions created and patented by Black Americans – like refrigerated delivery trucks, automatic elevators doors and the central heating furnace – to today’s construction leaders making an impact each day, there is a lot to celebrate.
