Feedback from the Judges:

I have never seen this mapping application before, I loved the way you used the tool to tell a visual story! Hovering over some of the names provides details about them, which I greatly enjoyed and encourage you to build that out for each name as you continue your work on the project. The tone of the map and the colors you selected work well for your topic.

was so impressed with the information you had on the black struggle. I think that an app that broke down all areas of the world and individual cities and provided real truthful knowledge of black history could do a lot for society as a whole.

I love when ideas can make history something fun to learn and explore! Great idea to incorporate an interactive map to help explore all these historical spots in Philadelphia during the Civil War. I'd love to see you take this visual approach with some of the other information you shared on the website! Some web quotes or other pages can help engage a visitor and makes the interactive learning something that can leave an impression on the reader. Lovely teamwork on the website!
