input.translationElijah McCoy was born in 1844 in Ontario to formerly-enslaved parents from Kentucky. They saved enough to send him to Scotland to study mechanical #engineering. When he returned and couldn't get work in his field, he took a job as a train oilman and invented a method of automatic lubrication that eliminated the frequent stops trains had to make to oil up axles & bearings. Railroad companies asking for his product rather than copycat devices spawned the phrase "the real McCoy." #BlackHistoryMonth

*Keeping* generational wealth has proved to be nearly impossible. Between racist pogroms, and eminent domain used to create parks, freeways, reservoirs, and shopping malls, Black folk in the US have consistently had their wealth stolen by white folks.
I still run into New Yorkers that go to Central Park every week, but have never heard of Seneca Village.

Robert ReichThis is a huge deal: The FTC proposed a sweeping ban on non-compete agreements.
30M Americans are trapped by these contracts.
The ban is estimated to increase wages by nearly $300 billion/year.
It's not a sure thing. Please flood the FTC with comments: https://www.regulations.gov/docket/FTC-2023-0007/document
