In her book, Sherri Mitchell recounts the legend of the cannibal giant's dance. She describes it as a character from our mythology that dwells far into the forest, sleeps throughout, and only awakens to a single particular scream of the earth mother. With that specific cry, the cannibal giant is alerted that people are harming the earth mother quicker than she can recover and are consuming more quickly than she can produce.
