HAVE to see these Maps of Prejudice

These brilliant ‘prejudice maps’ are visible either with a commentary, on a favourite website of mine -  Strange Maps at the Big Think  (and while you're there have a peek at the more recent/old Australian map from the 1920s which is outrageous)

OR in detail without preamble and with more of the man's prejudice maps on original website -

PS Testing this link throws up a problem with alphadesigner and clicking Back goes into a loop. Bugger. Put it directly into browser URL where it works perfectly.


And just when I was thinking about Shetland, this, on the BBC News website:

Caption got it exactly right. 
Hurray for Shetland!
