Why Polestar as a name?  During slavery, to reduce the number of escaping slaves, owners sought to keep them ignorant of geography, of even learning how to tell directions.  However the slaves knew freedom was north and they knew which way was north because of Polaris, The North Star or the Pole star.  It lies directly north in the sky.  Slaves fled using the simple direction "walk towards the north star".  Polaris became a symbol of freedom to slaves as well as a guide star. As the creator, designer and host of this site, I thank you for visiting, hope you’ve enjoyed your look around and invite you to come again.
