George Washington Carver, widely known for his groundbreaking agricultural research, was also an accomplished artist. Before his scientific career at Tuskegee Institute, Carver studied art and piano at Simpson College, where his talent for painting plants earned him recognition. His art teacher, Etta Budd, encouraged him to explore botany, leading to his eventual focus on agricultural science. Carver's innovative work with peanuts and sweet potatoes led to the creation of over 400 products, including plant-based paints, which he used in his artwork, blending his passions for science and art.
This #LaborDay, we honor the heroic efforts of American workers participating in labor movements. In response to African American exclusion from labor organizations, Black workers created all-Black unions that championed their members’ class & racial interests. #ANationsStory
Artist Sonya Clark ingeniously crafted this portrait of Madam C. J. Walker from three thousand plastic combs. Walker, born to formerly enslaved parents in Louisiana in 1867, built an empire of black hair-care products and is often credited as the U.S.'s first female self-made millionaire. This artwork is featured in Clark's retrospective 'We Are Each Other' at the Museum of Arts and Design, on view until September 22.
@AmyClukey I definitely will! And will also mention that there’s a US market who can no longer get it on Amazon but want to. Maybe it’ll return for you to assign the next time the course runs. 🤞🏻
@AmyClukey I can still get it on the BL store website and I have seen it in the Library shop recently. I can definitely ask someone in Publishing why it’s out of print in the US though if that would help? Where did you find it listed as out of print? The anthologies are so good!
