#DuBoisChallenge week 9 - a map comparing the population of Black Americans to the population of other countries, understanding the context of these plates at a World's Fair in Europe.
Done in #rstats

With each new #DuboisChallenge, I marvel at the insight and ingenuity that WEB DuBois brought to his depictions of the Georgia Negros, but also at his spectacular lack of a sense of color in his palettes.
Why doesn't anyone want to give him a helping hand?
Re-Visions of DuBois?
A portrait oriented visual (originally 22x28 inches) with a manila background with black text titled: "Negro Population of Georgia by Counties" showing two county maps of the state of Georgia. The maps show the Black population in 1870 and 1880, The first 1870 map, is in the upper left with categories in the upper right: 20-30,000 (purple), 15 to 20,000 (brown) and 10-15,000 (tan) The second 1880 map is the lower right quadrant, with categories in the lower left: 5-10,000 (red), 2,500-5,000 (pink), 1,000-2,500 (yellow), under 1000 (green)
#DuboisChallenge week4: "Negro Population of Georgia by County", is a choropleth map with a alternating left-right pattern, comparing the population of Black Georgians in the years 1870 and 1890. Note the decrease of lightly populated areas, with the heavily populated areas in red shifting west.
My entry for challenge 4 of the Dubois Challenge 2024 which is a reproduction of Dubois' plate 01 (The Georgia Negro). I made the map with python and created the rest in Canva.
A screenshot of my Observable notebook where I recreated the map on Dubois' plate 01 with d3.js (Canvas) by reusing a code example that implemented the map projection Mollweide interrupted.
When I saw in this year's #DuboisChallenge my nemesis from 2024, the double hemispheres map, I needed to try again!
Then, I made a Mercator map with python 😓 and used a frame on Canva 👇🏿This year, I succeeded by implementing the Mollweide Interrupted projection with d3.js 🥳🌎🌍

#DuBoisChallenge Week 2! I'll admit, I love the projection that Du Bois uses more than mine, but when I changed it on my map, my legend got distorted (maybe a job for the 'patchwork' package). Hatching to recreate the original work done using ggpattern

My attempt at this week's Du Bois Visualization Challenge.
I would have liked to recreate the hand-painted texture of fills and the ragged left edge, but I didn't see a way to do it in a purely programmatic way.
