The island is about 4 square miles and is today a place for tourism in the great lakes. Many thousands of years ago though this was a little piece of land with bluffs reaching high above its surroundings and was a merely a small piece of land surrounded by water. It was because of these bluffs the appearance of the island resembled a turtle and led to it being named “The Great Turtle” (Piljac, 1998).

One does need a full knowledge of the slave trade and slavery to know that those coming from the continent of Africa and those born into slavery suffered various forms of psychological rewiring, some positive but most negatively. Yet, it is scarcely asked what the mental state of the White population was.

Dragons have long taken part in many cultures all over the world, spanning from the Celtic people in Ireland to ancient Japanese and Chinese beliefs. Their roles in history have affected wars, traditions, and many of our modern folklore and fairytales. These beliefs and ideas have long been subtly woven into our culture here in North America; and even though we no longer train warriors to fight and slay dragons, or listen for birds to point out weak spots in dragons armor, we are still surrounded by their tales, from flags to videogames, they are sleeping in the caves of our minds.
