Dubois Challenge 2025

This annual challenge celebrates the data visualization legacy of W.E.B Du Bois at the 1900 Paris Exposition. Du Bois's aim was to demonstrate the economic development of Black people since emancipation in 1865. 160 later, this year's challenge will focus on visuals dealing with Economics.

My goal is to reproduce the 1900 plates using d3.js sticking as close as I can to the original. There are 10 charts over 10 weeks which will appear below alongside the original as they are take shape. More info about the competition here
