Despite what some people may try to tell you, he did not "invent the traffic signal" ... he patented one kind of traffic signal; it wasn't the first, nor was it remarkably better than the many others that were being developed by many other people around the same time, and to the best of my knowledge no city ever actually used it.
It's common for the traffic light myth to be trotted out during Black History Month, and it's unfortunate, because he really does deserve wider recognition for the safety hood that he not only developed but personally used in a heroic rescue of workers digging a water intake tunnel after a gas explosion and fire trapped them in there and killed the first people who tried to rescue them.
