Why is Benjamin Banneker remembered?
Benjamin Banneker was born on Nov. 9, 1731 in Baltimore, Md., to Robert[a freed slave] and Mary Bannaky. Mary Bannaky was the daughter of Molly [an Englishwoman sent off to America as an indentured servant at the age of 17. She would have been put to death for the 'crime' of literally, spilling her boss's milk, however, she could read the Bible, and that saved her life. After 7 years as a servant, she was given an ox, a cart and money to stake her claim on her own land. She subsequently visited the market place during a slave trade where she noticed a regal young African man whom she purchased and befriended, to help her work her land. They fell in love, married and had 4 daughters. The young African man's name was Bannaky. He was a Prince and taught Molly and their neighbors the art of irrigation, which he'd learned in his country as a young man.] and Bannaky, an African slave who was purchased and granted Freedom by Molly. The last name was changed through time to Banneker. Benjamin had no formal education, but had been taught to read the Bible by his Grandmother Molly. Also, he attended a few seasons in a nearby Quaker country school. He taught himself literature, history, science and mathematics, however, he was a himselfHowever, he was a tobacco planter most of his life. As a direct descendant to a regal African slave, he offers tremendous significance to the history of our country. This self-educated, self-made man wrote books on astronomy, mathematics , created a wooden clock and published an almanac. Banneker taught himself the science of astronomy; he made projections for solar and lunar eclipses and computed ephemeredes (tables of the locations of celestial bodies) for an almanac. Seemingly, there was little he could not accomplish. He wrote Thomas Jefferson rebuking him for his proslavery views and urged him to reconsider becoming part of the movement towards the abolition of slavery. His works demonstrated the equal mental abilities of the races.
