I hope you enjoy this video on George Washington Carver. Which other scientists from history do you think more people should know about? Let us know here in the comments!

[@DD-xf1yd]

Thank you for sharing the history of George Washington Carver. What an inspiring HUMAN BEING!

[@yogeshkashid6686]

Thanks

Where a I live in Georgia there is a small state park with it's own beach, playgrounds, boat ramp, and several other amenities. The place is kind of secluded, at the very end of a 3 or 4 mile road which I find awesome as I like to be a good ways away from other people when I fish and whatnot. But the reason it is where it is comes from a darker and more ignorant time of American history when blacks and whites were segregated. So the government and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers built the small recreation site known as Bartow-Carver state park. Our family reunion is there every year. Regardless of the reason for it's construction, I can't think of too many people that deserve a state park named after them more than the man who invented peanut butter! GOD BLESS YOU MR. CARVER!

Although his slave owner encourage his education when he moved him into his house for fear that he might rape his daughter, he had him castrated at age 14. Don’t believe me listen to any recording of George Washington Carver, at age 50 Talking in the high, feminine voice of a castrati.

Good video , good communication skills, well researched and very interesting. Would like to see more videos on black inventors. Some people say black people did not invent anything. Thank you so much. Keep up the good work. Thanks again.

Crop rotation was invented in 6000 BC. Not by carver.

[@sipiwemutemwa9758]

Thank you, Lord, for this man's life

[@marklamdrith148]

Another to consider is Carter Goodwin Woodson. A black historian who started black history week back in the 1920's He was also my cousin through the Riddle family. I'd like to have a DNA match to his paternal side of his family. Or if a Woodson family DNA match shows. Anyway he was an nteresting character

[@kamalalama-lama-ding-dong4452]

He actually didn't invent peanut butter

[@thephonixs8594]

Then who did

[@kamalalama-lama-ding-dong4452]

@@thephonixs8594 a Canadian man named Marcellus Gilmore Edson

[@zoraidacatherinenavarromd8261]

Sorry, he did invent peanut butter, but being black he was never given the patent it was given to the Kellogg Brothers do you know those guys who invented Kellogg’s cornflakes to stop you from masturbating? Like McCoy, several incredible black inventors have been denied their patents, which have been stolen or purposely given to white people.

I will be honest. Most contributions and inventions of blacks are not well known. Very good video.

[@Kingofthesigmas]

Stop being a hater

[@SanAntonioprepper]

[@mirolajuan1673]

If a peanut can kill you, do we really need more of these people?

[@U_neekliss]

This comment and those that liked it is just....🤦🏾‍♀️ He didn't invent peanuts so how could he be responsible for the lives lost from it? #makeitmakesense
