      There's the story of Benjamin Banneker, a celebrated Black polymath who helped Pierre L'enfant design Washington DC

      Self-taught at all kinds of stuff, built a clock by himself in his childhood (for those looking for modern parallels)

      The story goes L'enfant got fired from the DC project in favor of Maj. Ellicott so he tore up the original plans in a huff

      And Banneker was the one who helped Ellicott reconstruct them based on his memory of the originals

      Banneker sent back a blistering angry letter saying he wasn't going to discuss anything until Jefferson explained his hypocrisy

      Jefferson never replied to that letter. Months later he wrote to someone else "I'm sorry I never got a chance to meet Banneker"

          That sounds so much like something one of those MSNBC hosts would say about DeRay or someone contemporary now
