Lab1 Bad Map



I believe that this map has used a very bad color scheme.He also uses too many colors and different sized symbols for the same attribute. You can not figure out what the cartographer is trying to get across. I know that it is a map of African American population in the U.S. Maybe if he used a state by state break down it would not be so confusing. The symbolism that is used is also very confusing. Overall, the cartographer does not get his point across to the audience.
