A slave-born man who helped shape 20th-century America with his passion for God's creation.--DVD container.
You probably already know that George Washington Carver invented peanut butter. But did you know that he was one of the world's foremost experts in horticulture? He almost single-handedly reinvented land management in the South (of the USA) following the ravages of too much cotton and tobacco farming. He was so brilliant that Henry Ford and Thomas Edison tried to hire him. You will see what God can do with one man committed to Him. In this 2-part DVD, you'll discover someone who grew up "colored" in segregated America and met the challenges of poverty, frailty, sickness, and the KKK, but who saw every obstacle as a blessing and an opportunity to learn.
Adults.
