What’s being said in the video:
“I bet you didn’t know a black man invented the silicone soldier. Welcome to strap 101 where we talk about everything you need to know to do the silicone salsa. And today we are gonna talk about strap history, which you probably didn’t know is black history.”
“There would be no silicone soldier if it wasn’t for Gosnell Duncan, a black Grenadian man who, in the 70s, had an accident that left him paralyzed. But instead of letting that define him, he turned his pain into progress that also resulted into you and I’s pleasure. He realized that people with disabilities were left out of intimate design, so he invented the silicone soft pack, one of the first silicone based toys built for accessibility, comfort, and inclusion. What he started wasn’t just about pleasure. It was about liberation, empowerment, and respect for everybody.”
“So when we talk about Black history, black innovation, and innovation for sexual wellness, we have to say his name, Gosnell Duncan, the man who made the industry more human and accessible. The reason why you and I can strap up to this day. And a name that is often left out when it comes to sexual wellness history and black history as a whole. Happy Black history month, and thank you to Mr. Gosnell Duncan.”
