Botanical Black History: Bill Powell's Clearview Golf Course
Manage episode 419652769 series 2576858
Soil cousins, it's story time! Today, we're discussing resilience, landscaping, turf, greenery, and the determination to not just want a seat at the table, but to cut down the tree and build your own house.
We often reference farmers, gardeners, and other common horticultural lifestyles, but this is a truly unique career and life story about a remarkable golfer named William J. "Bill" Powell.
This is the story of William "Bill" Powell, a man whose life was intertwined with golf from a young age during an era of segregation when Blacks weren’t allowed in the PGA. Powell's story perfectly illustrates careers such as turf management and landscape architecture. If you’re anything like our beloved Bill, you can appreciate how every blade of grass and contour of the soil tells a story.
