Race, class, and overseas entanglements are three things Americans have a super hard time wrapping their heads around -- even from the perspective of what is ostensibly "history" instead of an immediately pressing concern. These maps lay out some of the evidence that the past is never really past... it's always lurking under there, waiting to pop up again.

One of the best uses of animated gifs I've ever seen.

And yes, a lot of them tell a sad story.

Not all the maps are gifs. This one is hard to talk about, too.

And geez, this one.

I'm not getting what is supposedly so hard to talk about with the above: data is simply data...

What are you trying to say with it and who are you trying to say it to?
