General Note
SAMPLE TEXT: George Washington Carver loved studying plants. He showed farmers how to grow sustainable crops. That helped them farm better and eat better. He also found that hundreds of things could be made from peanut plants. Growing peanuts helped farmers earn money. In Carver's time, life was hard for many black people in the United States. They did not have the same rights as white people. Carver felt that this was wrong. He used his ideas about farming to help change people's lives.
