Rebel Girls: Dream On

Maya Angelou was a poet who used her words to inspire hope and courage. But before that, she was a young girl who dreamed of being a streetcar conductor.

This ocean soundscape is inspired by Maya Gabeira, a surfer who spends her days in the sea. Picture yourself on the shore. The sand is warm between your toes, and the sound of the waves helps you feel calm, and peaceful.

This soundscape was produced by Katie Sprenger and sound designed by Craig Billmeier. Stay Rebel!

Listen to the frogs croak, the birds sing, and the wind rustle through the reeds. It's time to relax into the sounds of the savanna.

A relaxing story about Queen Seondeok of Silla. Queen Seondeok of Silla ruled her country with good will and fairness but her time as leader was not without challenges. In this story we hear about a time when a rival leader tried to take Queen Seondeok's throne by saying a falling star proves that she should not lead, and how the Queen got back at him by creating her OWN star the rose higher than anyone would have guessed.
