If there are two Great Americans who should be celebrated by everyone, it’s George Washington Carver, and Booker T. Washington.

Agreed; they're my personal heroes. I wrote a research paper in school about BTW and the Atlanta Compromise that the professor wanted to publish because he had never seen a thesis that pictured him as anything other than an "Uncle Tom" especially coming from a black person.
As an aside, Eddie Murphy did a routine about George Washington Carver and peanuts on SNL that was hilarious.
