Race Cartography ~ Eric Fischer's Urban Maps...

Cool piece by David Gardner in the DailyMail about digital cartographer Eric Fischer's maps showing the racial geography of big US cities based on year 2000 US Census data...
"With one dot equalling 25 people, [...] then colour-coded them based on race, with whites represented by pink, blacks by blue, Hispanic by orange and Asians by green."
