Scientifically Sound: Hosted by Ralph White III

Episode 12: Three Sisters or a "Stew"pendous Finale

Season 1 Episode 12

Finally, Finale! Potato, Potato. Corn, Beans, and Squash! Welcome to the last episode as we complete Season 1 of Scientifically Sound! Today, we are taking a quick look at vocal arrangement (with a special take from my friend, Ivory Doublette) as far as vocal groups are concerned and finding that something similar happens in the scientific world of plants and agriculture. Inspired by Dr. Beronda Montgomery "Lessons About Plants", we take a look at the Native American/ Indigneous people agricultural trend called Three Sisters.

No Song of the Sound this time because I want you all to check out these cool people and their stories. Three Sisters, Three Women, Three Native Americans of STEM.
