Nah dont think so could be anyone with an enquiring mind. It's probable a search term as a result of a Racist or biggoted attitude but not with the attribution you believe.
Have you not seen the number of stupid videos out there claiming that someone you have never heard of for good reason invented this or that and then attempt to attribute it to that person who only contributed some part used in the invention as refinements but not the original invention?
Look to Buzzfeed for some examples I saw.
There are too many people out there trying to rewrite history to suit their narratives. When i hear stupid claims like a Muslim invented the Airplane or a Black man invented the Computer I know someone is speaking bullshit. How many people would have been involved in making the first electronic
computers ? i'm not sure but it would have been many and probably included people of all races.
Anyone knowing more than nothing about Inventions that we use in todays world and the predecessor technologies is pretty aware that White people invented them. Morse code, Telegraph, Wireless Telegraph, Telephone, Radio, Television I could go on. So I think the need to write white in front of inventors is attributable to racist biggots but not the ones you are thinking.
