#BlackHistoryFact - African American Inventor Mary Beatrice Davidson Kenner is known for developing the sanitary pad
MEFeater Magazine
“She and her sister were both inventors, creating and patenting inventions for household use. Her sanitary belt wasn’t put into use until 30 years after she invented it because the company rejected her when they found out she was a Black woman.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Kenner

The Forgotten Black Woman Inventor Who Revolutionized Menstrual Pads
Mary Beatrice Davidson Kenner was a self-taught inventor who created the sanitary belt and filed five patents in her lifetime.
Najah, a mother of six who recently gave birth to twins, struggles every day to provide a decent life for her family. She needs support to give her children hope and a better future. Any help, no matter how small, can make a big difference.
💔After giving birth to twins, Najah has been suffering from severe weakness due to anemia and a lack of iron and essential vitamins, which has greatly affected her health and her ability to care for her children.
Despite her constant exhaustion, she continues to do her best to look after her family with love and strength.
However, her condition urgently requires proper medical care and nutrition to prevent it from worsening and to ensure it does not affect her baby as well.
Najah needs to buy medications and vitamins for herself, as well as milk and diapers for her twin babies. She requires $350 per week to cover these essential needs.

💔Najah is living with her children and her injured husband in harsh conditions after being displaced due to shelling, in an unsafe environment where microbes and infections are spreading. She is deeply worried about her family, but lacks healthy food, clean water, and basic hygiene supplies due to financial hardship. Despite everything, she continues trying her best to protect them.
💔Najah lives with her children in a poorly equipped tent that lacks the most basic protection and comfort, offering no shelter from the freezing cold or the intense heat. With the spread of rodents, her fear of diseases and infections continues to grow. Despite these harsh conditions, she does everything she can to protect her family in an unforgiving reality.
I want to buy a new tent ⛺️ to replace the old damaged tent 🏚️ in order to protect my children and provide them with a safe place. Please help me, as the cost of the tent is $500, which is beyond my ability.
💔Najah is suffering from the deteriorating health of her injured husband, who already had digestive problems before the war, and his condition has worsened, requiring continuous care that she cannot provide. Her son Ahmed also suffers from epileptic seizures, and she has been unable to afford his treatment due to financial hardship, which further increases her daily suffering and burden.
Ahmed’s treatment costs $150 per week due to the shortage of medications, but if 10 people donate just 15$ each, it is enough to secure his treatment and care for one full week.
💔Najah is struggling to educate her children!
Her children are deprived of schooling due to lack of money and the inability to buy notebooks and books, as each child needs around $200. Every donation from you gives them a chance to learn and a better future.
A donation of just 10 people giving $25 each is enough to reach our goal and provide children with education and return them to school.
Donate now and give them hope!

Don't wait until it's too late! Every donation and share from you makes a big difference in the lives of those in need!🇵🇸🙏
I am in a hospital bed and unable to move, while my children outside are screaming in fear. I hear the sounds of explosions and their crying through the phone, but I am powerless to reach them or protect them.
I am Najah, a mother who can only listen and remain helpless.
I am Najah, writing to you from a place no one notices. I see everyone passing by my message, but no one stops. No one donates, and no one shares it so it can reach others.
I am not asking for much… just a chance to support my children and protect them. But your silence makes me feel like my voice is being lost, and my need is unseen.
All I want is for my plea to be heard before it’s too late.

Tumblr has got to be one of the webbed sites of all time because sometimes you log on and it seems like the entire site has gotten really into stick figure juggling and you just kind of have to shrug and accept that that's part of the furniture now

Thankyou all so much for following along. The outpouring of support and care for the artists behind the art has been really heartening throughout this whole process. Not to be cringe but I honestly think this medium captures the human spirit better than any other form of expression, so I know whatever the future brings for us we’ll be able to weather it for that reason alone. 🕊️
