- Levi’s map argues that the Great Migration impacted Denver’s North Point Neighborhood by the number of Black people that increasingly moved into the neighborhood. Levi shows census data that shows the increasing number of Black people within Denver’s North Point and also new buildings such as a YMCA.
- I really liked how thorough the data was that they collected for their map. The number of maps included also really adds to the argument. There are a multiple number of maps throughout the storymap that add to the story and they’re all super well done. All of the maps are really organized.
- I think for Levi’s storymap I would have considered writing more text. This could just be because I love to talk and tell stories, but I think that element could have been used a bit more, especially to add on to the story of the maps. I wish there was more background on the Great Migration and specifically how segregation spread throughout Colorado. I feel as if the HOLC is briefly touched on, but I wish I knew more about how it was Colorado and Four Points specific. I also wished there was more about the culture of the neighborhood, knowing that famous jazz musicians were from the neighborhood. I think all of the claims are fully supported, however, and that is done very well with maps to back them up.
