In this episode of The Forbidden Frequency, we turn up the heat on a trailblazing inventor you've likely never heard of—Alice H. Parker, the Black woman who patented a revolutionary gas-powered furnace system in 1919. Long before central heating became standard, Parker imagined a future where homes could be safely and efficiently warmed, room by room, using natural gas and ductwork—ideas far ahead of her time.
Join us as we trace her remarkable vision, explore why her contributions were buried in history, and rediscover how her quiet genius reshaped modern comfort. From forgotten patents to foundational technology, Parker’s story is one of innovation, resilience, and warmth—in every sense of the word.
