"Occupations of Negroes and Whites in Georgia" is not quite an pie chart, but a "fan chart", comparing the occupations of two groups. The chart is a good example of the typical Du Bois color palette.

"Occupation of Georgia Negroes" at first glance looks like a conventional bar chart, but it includes a line curved upon itself to denote a large data point -- Agricultural workers, 98,400 (42.6% of the total). Also note the smaller categories, ranging from "Saw and Planing Mill Employees" to "Gardener and Florists" are summarized into a collective line.

One of the most famous Du Bois visualizations, the spiral "Assessed Value of Household and Kitchen Furniture Owned by Georgia Negroes" illustrates the power of ownership: the value of household goods began at $2,186 in 1875, blossoming to $1.4 million by the turn of the century.

"Plate 20 in Du Bois’ exhibition – “Land Owned by Negroes in Georgia, U.S.A. 1870-1900.” – is a bright and colorful map of Black landownership across the state... its end and the beginnings of Jim Crow segregation." from mappingatlanta.org/2022/10/23/l...
