Problem for the NYPD is that both are human rights attorneys...OOPS! But I guess these two were lucky at least they didn't get shot at 50 times. Read entire story by clicking the link below:

Miriam E. Benjamin's Gong & Signal Chair:

Black Inventor, Miriam E. Benjamin Was Awarded A Patent On This Day In 1888 For The Gong And Signal Chair For Hotels.

Using A Rod-Activated Signal, This Chair Was Designed To Summon Waiters To A Patron's Table.  The System  Worked By Pressing A Small Button On The Back Of The Chair Which Would Relay A Signal To A Waiting Attendant. At The Same Time, A Light Would Illuminate On The Chair, Allowing The Attendant To See Which Guest Was In Need Of Assistance.

Benjamin's Innovative Chairs Were Installed In The U.S. House Of Representatives

The NACCP and non-affiliates have been performing mock funerals of the n-word around the country, burying the term, its negative connotations, and condescending use.  The most recent funeral occurred July 9, 2007, during the NAACP Detroit Convention weekend.  

The purpose and importance of these mock funerals is being questioned by individuals from various backgrounds and circuits. Skeptics believe that these mock funerals are outright ridiculous. Advocates of killing off the n-word rebut with a meditating question: Denigrating African-American women, glamorizing violence, defining an
