In honour of Black History Month, here is the story of the extraordinary American Plant Scientist George Washington Carver. He was born into slavery in the USA and through hard work and education became an influential agricultural reformer, science communicator, and economic botany researcher. GW Carver grew up in rural Missouri, USA, and had an early affinity for plants as well as a hunger for learning. He studied botany at Iowa State University and became the first Black faculty member at this university. At the Tuskegee University, he headed the Agricultural department and researched environmentally friendly farming methods such as crop rotation with legume crops like peanuts. Although he did not personally invent peanut butter, he promoted the South American crop’s nutritional benefits to help public health. He also researched many plant diseases and studied new ways to use plant products in medicine. The last two decades of his life saw him become a household name on both sides of the Atlantic, where he gave public lectures on plant biology, new uses of peanuts and sweet potatoes, organic farming, racial harmony, and education for Black Americans. He was a lifelong bachelor and a devout Christian in addition to his passion for plants. Although he suffered from delicate health his whole life, he had a strong spirit and an indomitable drive to leave the world a better place than he found it. #georgewashingtoncarver #blackhistory #juneteenth #blackamericans #africanamericans #blackculture #scientist #greatscientists #plantbiology #plantscience #botany #agriculture #famousscientists #blackscientist #pocinstem #katia_plantscientist #blackhistorymonth #blackexcellence #blackhistory #botany #poc #blackscientist #scientist #inspirational

Green Arrow had a new child scientist villain. Who needs glasses?
Danny was already with the many Blob Ghosts working for him (think of them as Minions of Despicable Me). This new place is a super funny vacation place! He should think ghostwriter about it. True, his eyes were hurt by the portal, but that would be gone in a few years. But who cares about it? With just his genius and no powers as a human, he can show he is a genius! That was how Danny, without knowing it, became a wonderful child who was just having chaotic fun in the new world. It's like a game for him; it's not like he would have problems.
Batman has the Joker.
Superman has Lex Luthor.
Wonder Woman has the cheetah.
But Green Arrow! Green Arrow has a child scientist! with a tragic childhood who does musicals to explain his evil plans.
Just for the poor comedy and Oliver trying to hide it from the other heroes out of embarrassment. Of being defeated by a child and not being able to capture him. ++ Danny looked at Oliver Queen without his green Arrow mask. "An ordinary civilian with a goat?" Oliver saw as he put on his hood. Danny:"An ordinary civilian dressed up as a Green Arrow?" Oliver puts on the mask. Danny: "Ah! Green ARROW! " Green Arrow gave a tired sigh. Black Canary:" When we finally are able to capture him, The first thing we will do is send him to an ophthalmologist." Danny:" Since you are here, I wil tell you about my trash-inator!" Oliver:" So It creates trash." Danny:" NO! Man, are you evil? It collects all the trash in the whole city and teleports it away." Black Canary:" That is a pretty good indicator. You could do much goo..." Danny:" Yes, then into the Bat Cave all the trash of the Star city will go. I was paid by Red Hood to do that." Oliver:" NOO!!"
++ So because Oliver covered it up until now, Danny has now become a world-wide problem. Oliver really didn't want to say he lost a child or explain it. Danny with his Shrink Ray:" Tonight we steal the Legion of Doom HQ/The Hall of Justice!" All the Blob Ghost:" YAYY!"
And yes, Danny stole the Legion of Doom HQ/The Hall of Justice as both Heroes and Villian fought each other in a great battle.
That was the moment Oliver had to explain the problem that he had covered up.

George Washington Carver was an American agricultural scientist and inventor who promoted alternative crops to cotton and methods to prevent soil depletion. He was one of the most prominent black scientists of the early 20th century. George Washington Carver was born a slave in Diamond Grove, Missouri in 1864 on a farm owned by Moses and Susan Carver. In 1865, before the end of the Civil War, Mary, Carver’s mother and Carver were both kidnapped from the Carver Farm to be resold. Moses and Susan Carver sent out people to try and locate both Mary and an infant Carver. They succeeded in locating Carver in Arkansas, however his mother was never found.

100 Things You Didn't Know Were Invented by Black People (Episode 1)
youtube
One day Black Indigenous People worldwide will start defining themselves and stop following the narrative which label us a separate group of humans.
African American is associated with slaves being transported from Africa to the Americas and other lands, which in fact Black People are the original inhabitants of all the world.
We often talk about how much of a surprise to achieve something worthwhile as if you have to have an approval from someone else when our history says that we are rulers of the earth.
There's only one race of human being on this planet and we are all many shades of Blackness no matter how people hate Blackness globally but I will always love my Blackness because it represents life for humankind.
I can't stand weak minded people who tries to demean everything Black because they are inferior cowards who wants to be superior over others because they know they can't compete on a level field.
