Madelene Miller shares the origin of the phrase, “The Real McCoy" which goes back to an invention by Elijah McCoy for the locomotive industry. It brings about our desire for authenticity. In our relationships, in business, and specifically in the body of Christ. This brings up the question, "How do you know if someone is truly a Christian?" Madelene points to scripture to help find an answer.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On May 2, 1843, Elijah McCoy, a Canadian-American inventor, was born in Ontario, Canada.  Raised by former slaves who had fled to Canada via the Underground Railroad, McCoy's family resettled in Detroit, Michigan. At the age of 15, McCoy journeyed to Scotland to complete a mechanical engineering apprenticeship. Returning to the U.S., he faced challenges securing employment in his field, leading him to work as a fireman and oiler for the Michigan Central Railroad. It was in this role that McCoy's innovative mind shone through. His expertise led him to develop a revolutionary lubricator for steam engines, which automatically distributed oil to critical parts, eliminating the need for frequent stops for manual lubrication. This invention earned McCoy his first patent in 1872. Throughout his life, McCoy patented nearly 60 inventions. He passed away in 1929 at 85 years old. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this powerful final episode of Black History Month on Espresso Talk Today, we dive deep into the heart of what it means to be a history maker. Guided by the wisdom of the courageous and brilliant philosopher and activist, Angela Davis, we explore how every one of us, through our everyday actions, contributes to making history. From the stories of young activists reshaping our communities to the affirmations that fuel our inner strength, this episode is a call to recognize our collective power and responsibility. We delve into the lives of individuals who, from youth to young adulthood, have stood up, spoken out, and acted to create change, proving that history is shaped by the everyday actions of ordinary people. Our discussion extends beyond the past, focusing on how we are actively crafting the future with our choices, voices, and actions today. This episode is not just a reflection on Black History Month but a beacon for the ongoing journey of self-empowerment and collective action. Join us as we embrace the present with the knowledge that we are all, indeed, making history. Bonus Materials: Quote: “It is essential to resist the depiction of history as the work of heroic individuals for people today to recognize their potential agency as a part of an ever-expanding community of struggle.” ~ Angela Davis Self-Care Activity Affirmations are a powerful tool for nurturing positive self-perception and resilience. Here are five affirmations to reinforce your sense of purpose, empowerment, and well-being: "I am a conduit of change; my actions, no matter how small, ripple out into the world, creating waves of positive impact." "My worth is not measured by the scale of my achievements but by the sincerity of my efforts and the kindness in my heart." "I give myself permission to rest and recharge, recognizing that self-care is not selfish but essential to sustain my passion and purpose." "I stand on the shoulders of giants, drawing strength from those who came before me, and I too, am laying the foundations for future generations." "My voice matters, my actions count, and my presence makes a difference in the tapestry of history, woven one thread at a time." Repeat these affirmations daily, especially during moments of doubt or fatigue.     

Elijah McCoy, Garret Morgan, George Washington Carver, and Madame CJ Walker are names you might recognize. They're Black inventors whose inventions modernized the world. But they may also be the only names you recognize when you think of Black inventors. Due to racism and other discriminatory structural barriers, potential Black inventors have been locked out, or in some cases violently forced out, of invention pipelines. On this episode of Justice Above All, Dr. Kesha Moore, TMI Research Manager, takes a deep dive into the world of innovation and tracks how racism has undermined scientific innovation. Guests: Eric S. Hintz, Historian, Lemelson Center Corey Mack, InventorTiffani Burgess, LDF Economic Justice Fellow If you enjoyed this episode please consider leaving a review and helping others find it!

Elijah McCoy revolutionized technology forever—from trains to the factory floor—by allowing steam engines to keep running without frequent manual intervention. In 1872, he invented a device that made steam engines infinitely more productive, but his peers refused to give him credit. They even tried passing off their own attempts, none of which worked as well—leading folks to say in frustration, “I want the Real McCoy!” Elijah was almost lost to history. But thankfully, his wife and a strong community of black activists in Detroit—and Andrew Moodie, a playwright in McCoy's native Canada—swooped in to save his legacy. Today, the story of how Elijah McCoy became “The Real McCoy.” A Sony Music Entertainment and Somethin' Else production.
