Although all of these adventures were thrilling to read about, nothing touched me like the story of an accident that caused him to fight for civil rights. One of his black workers fell into a vat of boiling tar. Carl himself drove the man in his personal car to the hospital. He was told that they didn't treat "his kind" at that hospital.
