Carver
I read a book about George Washington Carver. He was so unique, raised by white parents and then plunged into a predominantly white university and allowed to get two degrees. From there, he went into the deep south and from the start, he was despised. It was his coming that showed them how insufficient their university was despite all that had been done. Carver had a better education from a better institution and that made him better. Better is not superior for even better submits to someone but better at times is simply better. His receiving was cool and at times disrespectful, but other than Booker T, no one else is remembered as much as George Washington Carver. You can’t despise better. He made that place a better place. He put it on the map. He placed it in history. We remember it because of him. He made the place……………………better.
