Education in the Black community didn’t include any, to my knowledge, much beyond the basic sciences, biology, chemistry, physics, but there were other things available. Geology was one of them. I hadn’t a clue about that. I remember in high school, sitting in, I think it was a geography class, and we talked about the morphology of streams and the aging of streams and the cycles that they go through. And I remember having this incredible high about thinking about things in long term, and I was motivated by that. But I wasn’t exposed to it anymore after that.
