# Du Bois Visualization Challenge: 2024

![challenge2024](plate-list-00001.png)

The goal of the challenge is to celebrate the data visualization legacy of W.E.B Du Bois by recreating the visualizations from the 1900 Paris Exposition using modern tools.

This directory contains the data and original plates from the exposition; your goal is to re-create
the visualizations using modern tools of your choice (Tableau, R, ggplot, Stata, PowerBI, decksh, etc)

There is a folder for each challenge, which includes the images of the 1900 original plates along with the corresponding data. You may submit your re-creations to social media using the hash tag ```#DuBoisChallenge2024```. 

Note that for 2024, the challenge will occur on X (formally Twitter), Data Visualization Society Slack, Instagram, as well as Mastadon on vis.social.
