No. The first steam engine was that of Hero of Alexandria, a Greek living in Egypt. The first practical steam engine was invented by Thomas Savery, an Englishman.
I suspect this is one of the many hundreds of "facts" promulgated by Black History Month that wildly overstate the contributions that black people have made to technological progress (for example, claiming that a black man "invented" something when what he really did was make a small improvement to an existing device). Such claims only serve to dilute the realcontributions by black people.
