    This unusual trick will help you summon an army of worms - Kenny Coogan

    Discover the tradition of worm grunting, and find out why earthworms come to the surface when they sense vibrations in the earth.--In the middle of Florida’s Apalachicola National Forest, a bizarre, almost magical scene is unraveling. Sliding a metal strip over a wooden stake, a master summoner is sending deep croaking noises reverberating throughout the area. And, as if in a trance, hundreds of earthworms begin emerging from the soil. What’s going on? Kenny Coogan explores the tradition known as worm grunting.

    Why did Phillis Wheatley slip away? - Charita Gainey

    Get to know the life and works of poet Phillis Wheatley, an enslaved woman who became one of colonial America’s most famous writers.--In 1775, General George Washington received a poem from one of colonial America’s most famous writers. Its verses praised the burgeoning revolution, invoking the goddess of their new nation to aid the general’s cause. But this ode to liberty wasn’t written by some aloof aristocratic admirer. Its author was a young enslaved Black woman.
