Principal: Hey, Huey! How's it going? Guess what I brought for lunch today? Huey: Excuse me, principal Williams? Principal: I brought this - a delicious and wholesome peanut butter and jelly sandwich. And even though February is long gone, it made me think about black history... I keep thinking about how if it wasn't for that Washington Carver what's-his-name guy, I would have never been able to eat this sandwich... that's pretty deep when you think about it... I mean, to me it's just a tasty lunch, but to you it's a contribution by your race to world cuisine. Huey: Yes, we black people are all pretty proud of the whole peanut butter thing. Next Tuesday we celebrate "Carver day." It's kinda like Kwanzaa, only with lots of peanut products. Principal: That's fascinating. I did not know that... Huey: ... So I won't be in school all next week, OK? Principal: For "Carver day"? Hey, I might even stay home...
A GOOD cartoon about “Carver Day”
