Charles “Chip” Cartwright became the first black District Ranger in 1979, and in 1988 he was named Supervisor of the Jefferson National Forest in Virginia, thereby becoming the first black Forest Supervisor. Black and white photo of the District Ranger wearing a Forest Service uniform with badge, name plate, and Forest service emblem on shoulder.

Yesterday I highlighted International #WomenInScienceDay.

It’s also #BlackHistoryMonth.

We should still celebrate our diversity.

It’s an easy way to let people feel seen.

It helps people see *ALL* have a place in the stewardship of our public lands.

Fun color photograph of pioneering American chemist Stephanie Kwolek (1923–2014), the inventor of Kevlar, taken in her later years. She is indoors in what appears to be a home or lab setting with soft lighting and kitchen-like background elements. Kwolek, an older woman with short gray hair, wears large round eyeglasses, a light plaid blouse or dress with a white collar, and holds up a bright yellow circular button that reads "ASK ME ABOUT KEVLAR" in bold black lettering. On her hands she wears thick yellow Kevlar protective gloves (the very material she invented), one glove prominently displayed in the foreground as she grips the button. Her expression is gentle, proud, and welcoming, with a slight smile, embodying her lifelong dedication to science, safety, and innovation as she invites conversation about her groundbreaking discovery that revolutionized bullet-resistant vests, tires, helmets, and countless other applications.#StephanieKwolek #Kevlar #WomenInScience #Chemistry #Inventor

Chemist Stephanie Kwolek invented Kevlar in 1965. Kevlar, a lightweight, heat-resistant fiber 5X stronger than steel, is best known for its use in bulletproof vests & body armor. #WomenInSTEM
