But these these 120 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 5: concoctions help families survive. 121 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 3: The world has. 122 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:12,560 Speaker 5: Misunderstood the legend children. All these inventions came from a 123 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 5: greater need, which was saving southern agriculture. Cotton had drained 124 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 5: the soil and the soil became exhausted. Farmers were losing 125 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 5: everything because crops stop growing. So I asked the earth, 126 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 5: what else can you grow? And the earth said peanuts 127 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 5: and sweet potatoes and pecants. 128 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 3: Yes. 129 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 5: Indeed, I taught farmers to rotate crops, let the soil rest, 130 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 5: and let new plants heal it. So you weren't just inventing, 131 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 5: you were restoring the land. Incredible, mister carb I'm a 132 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 5: novice inventor myself. 133 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:55,719 Speaker 3: Oh I know. 134 00:09:55,840 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 5: Layla ah, he knows my name. Yep said it a 135 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 5: few minutes ago. I was also lifting up black farmers, 136 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 5: teaching them how to make money from the new crops 137 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 5: of peanuts and sweet potatoes, and how to survive without 138 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 5: cotton crops. Many black farmers had nothing left, so we 139 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 5: built movable classrooms in the early nineteen hundreds, wagons that. 140 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 3: Carried books, tools, seeds. We took education to the people. Wow, 141 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 3: that's awesome. 142 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 5: I never chased fame, but soon Congress called, presidents listened, 143 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 5: and I gave my now infamous peanut testimony. In nineteen 144 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:48,359 Speaker 5: twenty one, people wanted to learn how curiosity could change communities. 145 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 5: Mister Carver, You're not just a scientist or inventor. 146 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:55,720 Speaker 3: You're a hero. 147 00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 5: Mister Carver gently takes Ella's hand.
