About this listen
In episode 106, we pay homage to Sarah Boone, an African American inventor who made a significant contribution to household technology. She is best known for inventing an improved ironing board in 1892, a design that made it easier to press garments, especially women's clothing. Boone's innovation not only streamlined the process of ironing but also paved the way for further advancements in home appliances. Her legacy continues to inspire inventors and highlight the importance of African American contributions to everyday life.
