isn't it wonderful to his credit born in 1864, and then to not want to stay with his wondering Mom and men she took off with, but be with the Carvers, to get a bachelors1894 degree at 30 yo at Iowa State and then go on for a masters grad in 1896. He had a brother, I wonder which way he went?

Wow I am at loss of words I would have never imagined to see footage like this

Regardless, I strive to match his inventiveness in life. His accomplishments for the world moved the entire human race forward. What about that. Thank you, Dr. Carver.

The most prominent black scientist of the early 20th century! I don't know how the man's peanut products didn't take off during his era. He also made products out of sweet potatoes and other things which most people do not know. What a genius!

Mr. G.W.Carver had knowledge, wisdom, & was a genius!!!! Thanks for sharing!!!

So proud to see Mr. George Washington Carver in color. I learned a lot about him growing up in Al, but there wasn't much info in the 80's about him in my 5th grade Alabama history books. I'm glad that I had teachers and a mom that encouraged my couriosity for history and reading. Thanks for sharing Reelback! I love your channel!

I love to watch the mannerisms, decor, style of clothes #amazing

To Tanean Bethay, He did obtain one patent. He did not want to profit from his inventions but wanted to share them with mankind. Read his autobiography the biography written by others leave out the most important things. They have led you astray. He was my hero in junior high. How could he invent 300 uses for the peanut. Later I found out it was 3000. I am a 77 year old white man and he is still my hero.

I am 60 and came to study the footage as I studied the man's accomplishments. Lots more than these gems below. Carver only patented three of his inventions. In his words, “It is not the style of clothes one wears, neither the kind of automobile one drives, nor the amount of money one has in the bank that counts. These mean nothing. It is simply service that measures success.” Peanut products (from Live Science) Carver heard the complaints and retired to his laboratory for a solid week, during which he developed several new products that could be produced from peanuts. When he introduced these products to the public in a series of simple brochures, the market for peanuts skyrocketed. Today, Carver is credited with saving the agricultural economy of the rural South.From his work at Tuskegee, Carver developed approximately 300 products made from peanuts; these included: flour, paste, insulation, paper, wall board, wood stains, soap, shaving cream and skin lotion. He experimented with medicines made from peanuts, which included antiseptics, laxatives and a treatment for goiter. Carver's legacy Carver died on Jan. 5, 1943. At his death, he left his life savings, more than $60,000, to found the George Washington Carver Institute for Agriculture at Tuskegee. In 1943, President Franklin D. Roosevelt dedicated funds to erect a monument at Diamond, Missouri, in his honor. Commemorative postage stamps were issued in 1948 and again in 1998. A George Washington Carver half-dollar coin was minted www.livescience.com/41780-george-washington-carver.html#:~:text=From%20his%20work%20at%20Tuskegee,and%20a%20treatment%20for%20goiter.

He had a brother, I wonder which way he went? With so many people like him and Hiram Revel graduated school college and law school to be elected in 1870 to Mississippi congress, I always wondered why anyone would praise criminals and subversive types. smh "led you astray" . There are so many videos on yt from the 1800s interviews even. People were much more honorable back then, Dr. Salk when asked if he would patent his polio vac that worked for one because it wasn't for a cold virus which mutates too fast to get a vac, said "can one patent the sun."

I had the Honor of Walking on these same steps as Booker T. Washington and George Washington Carver, attending this Great University. 🙏🏾🙌🏾👏🏾

Thank God this has been preserved.

Oh What a blessing! I don’t know how you get these fabulous pictures and stories but thank you. In first or second grade my white teacher gave me a book on George Washington Carver for my birthday. (Back then white teachers had no clue that black children are just like white children except for the color of their skin.) None of the other children got that book because they were white, but that was their loss. Anyway, that book introduced me to this brilliant man. Many years after the book I learned that Henry Ford offered Mr. Carver big bucks to help him with his cars, but he kindly turned the offer down since he loved teaching at Tuskegee. Thanks again.

I'm sure he knew what kind of man Ford was. Dr. Carver also turned down working with Thomas Edison. Very strong character

I so loved seeing this! I was so fortunate to happen across the George Washington Carver national monument in Missouri in 2011. Before that, I'd never heard of him. He was such an inspiration and gentle man with such great ethics, I became fascinated and a few months ago here in New Zealand in a thrift store I found a biography about him by Rackham Holt, and am just reading the last chapter. What an amazing book, I've learned so much about Mr Carver, and to see this movie is just amazing 👏 thank you! He is truly a national and world treasure. Can't wait to meet him in heaven someday. 💓

Mr. Carver was always one of my favorite heros. He once asked God to show him the secrets of the universe, but God told him that that was too much for him to handle, so God filled him with the knowledge of the peanut. And what he achieved with that knowledge was amazing.

One of the world’s greatest minds.

Those same demons go to classes to be able to dance like the very ancestors they persecuted. Thank goodness I am not an idiot who thinks erasing my people's culture is some sort of badge of honor.

A very humble and great man!

I wish this had sound! This is amazing!

A mind is a terrible thing to waste. Dr. Carver DEFINITELY did NOT waste his brilliant mind. He used his heaven-born wisdom to bless the world.

Too cool! Amazing being able to see him in color. Also noticed that some of the footage is as late as 1941 (I saw a 41' Ford in the marching band footage, lol.)

THANKS FOR POSTING THIS LOVELY WORK OF ART!

Thank you so much for sharing this rare gem. IMany of us have read about George Washington Carved; however we've never had the opportunity to see this brilliant man on film. Thank you very much.

Seeing this here is a amazing experience imagine being back in them times, like going through a time tunnel This Here IS real black history

Thank you for sharing this footage of one most greatest man in American History!

Reelblack a thousand thanks for sharing this rare glimpse of our “PRECIOUS BLACK HISTORY”which not preserved or shared would be lost forever again thank you for what you are doing.

My god, REEL BLACK, how did you aquire such amazing archives! This is just wonderful! I've been collecting BLACK HISTORY DOCUMENTARIES on VHS and DVD since 1985. You have stuff I never knew existed! Thank you so very much for being a source for those of us who love BLACK HISTORY!

George Washington Carver was a genius. Thank you for sharing and reminding us what an incredible people we come from. This is the part of history many of us don’t even know about because Whites have worked very hard in keeping it from us. That’s why it’s important that we never forget who we are and the people we come from. Because you know what they always do....take our history and say it’s theirs.

Priceless footage. #smiles

Big Legendary Historic footage!

The ills of his society gave him the chance and the courage to try and make all of what he saw in his time just a little bit better than it was, and he accomplished way more than that... by within himself having the ability and the desire to do so. He did exactly what he set out to do. And more.

Thanks to Mr. GWC one of many who respectfully paved the way for us! Rest In Power Sir!

One of our Geniuses..finally a video to view him and in COLOR!

This reminded me of my 1st semester at Tuskegee, and the treks through the valley for class. I took so many naps! But after a few weeks, the walks transitioned into opportunities for smiles and laughter.

The man in the flesh that change the world forever.

6/5/24, the day before my twin boys graduate from high school, one who is salutatorian of his class and both headed to college accepted into the honors program, one attending an HBCU where their parents met and graduated and the other going to study civil and structural engineering (non-HBCU, had to go were the money was given) I come upon this PRICELESS footage of one of the trailblazers who made it possible for my parents, me and now them to pursue higher learning and displays a portion of the genius inside us. A full circle moment for me. Thank you @Reelblackone 🙏🏾.

OMG!!! That's really him in REAL LIFE?! I wish I get to meet Carver 🙁🙁🙁🙁

Hats of this great spirit....

Great stuff! Not only the man but the footage!

This is the closest we’ll get to time travel

Thank you!

I taught my Sunday School class about him today. Of course, one of my kids got confused and thought I was talking about George Washington. I had to explain they were to VERY different people.

Carver loved the Lord and was a great Christian man of faith.

He and Henry Ford held a very close personal friendship.

Imagine what he could have done with modern technology

A Gifted GENIUS who Never got credit for all of his inventions one of his greatest inventions is the automobile that Henry Ford took credit for ,

I attended a GW high in Newport News VA what fond memories

AWESOME !!!

Awesome 😎

Im very shocked at how people interacted with one another! 😮 Very respectful and loving people wow!

Tuskegee ❤❤

Lovely Artist too!!!

I wonder if this is a remastered version of color. It doesn’t look remastered because the color looks so perfect . Most remastered color film looks too grainy or too colorful.

What an archival treasure.
