History didn’t forget Lewis Howard Latimer — it replaced him.

This documentary follows one precise question:
How did the man who made electric light practical, drafted major patents, and wrote the manual for installing lighting systems… become, at best, a footnote?

Across 8 minutes, we trace:

How Latimer went from “office boy” to trusted patent draftsman
His carbon filament work that turned the light bulb from demonstration to industry
The systems, plants, and manuals that carried electric light into real homes and streets
The Edison Pioneers, and why Latimer appears in the photo but not in most classroom stories
How textbooks, headlines, and branding simplified a collaborative network into a single “genius”
This isn’t about taking credit away from Edison.
It’s about putting Latimer back where he actually was: at the center of the system, not the margin of the story.

If the only version you ever heard made Latimer optional, this film shows you what was left out
