Black Inventors

"Black Inventors"...Extraordinary Inventions!



The African American Unity Flag (AAUF) was designed by Mr. Vincent W. Paramore of "Miami Florida".
Mr. Paramore has a United States design Patent #Des;316.383 which can be seen in the official patent gazette at any Depository Library in the United States.

Meaning in brief:
The Flag tells the history of a people who originated from Africa and found themselves in a new land stripped of their Religion, Culture, Language and History.
It also memorializes black heroes and heroines known and unknown.

The "AAUF" Serves to salute our continued progress for total freedom and equality.

  These inventors took advantage of their God-given talents to create products that simplified the lives of people all over the world.
