Is it deliberate that the color black is used to represent "white" popularion , and the color white is used to represent the absense of whites?--Per Abrahamsen 07:35, 20 October 2006 (UTC) I agree, it's quite confusing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.174.16.69 (talk) 07:15, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

In all of his maps it is clear that the more dense something is, the darker the color is used to represent it. It's got a key for a reason—use it! It's silly to imagine that on this particular map because the group charted is Caucasian it should be rendered in a non-standard way, with white representing higher density and black not. It would also be even more misleading in certain ways, if it the density gradients were somehow pretending to represent actual skin color. --98.217.8.46 (talk) 14:42, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
