For my “How did they make that?” assignment I choose to look over “St. Louis History in Black and White: From Dred Scott to Ferguson” History is important to culture and region in recognizing where we come from and how we got to this point. This article stood out to me because this comes from STL. Public Radio and a collaboration with the University of Missouri. The goal of the project is to bring recognition to better understand racial inequality in the ST. Louis Region. The presentations wants to show how race affected peoples lives when it came to their Health ,education, and income. Using a slideshow\/map the article neatly demonstrates different periods of time in the STL Region and how it affected the community. Spreading the word and sharing history especially in the black community is important for the STL Radio and they would like that all ages and types of people that have an interest in the subject to know where they can find the information. The project came to the conclusion that black and white people lived completely different lives in the early years of STL from the year 1865 to the 1970’s. it shows that Black people were more likely to experience poverty, no education, or job opportunity’s. Thought the project it shows a clear demonstration of the suffering of black people and how it is tied to history and different ideology’s that were pertained during those times. Using data Visualization maps and charts with a combination of storytelling it gives a look into the lives of black and white people for different points in history. The STL Radio showed off history acceptably well in there project, but the lack of video, and somewhat short presentations leave something to be desired. This weakness makes the page feel bland and dated. With some upgrades and promotion I believe that STL Radio can succeed in their mission and bring recognition to the area and the history of black people. Furthermore, this project promotes the lifestyle and inequality’s of St. Louis of the past. It demonstrates that deep rooted issues are still prevalent today. With this project it helps deepen understanding and makes the information more accessible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
