@BirungiMargret5 For what the QM went through since the death of her husband to date, even if it's me, I will reveal everything only when I know that everything is safe
@Brianw256 Guys with all what she went through when from the death of her husband to courts and you expect her to parade a child and a will infront of the same people who mistreated her? Even me I must have grounded myself before I declare.
The UN General Assembly is debating a landmark African-led resolution to replace the 1569 Mercator map projection with the geographically accurate Equal Earth map across international institutions, schools, and media platforms.
Sponsored by Togo and backed by the African Union member states, this initiative builds on the #CorrectTheMap to dismantle centuries of "cartographic colonialism."
Why this vote matters:
1. The Mercator Illusion: Designed in the 16th century for sea navigation, the Mercator projection distorts landmasses as they move away from the equator making Greenland appear the same size as Africa, when Africa is actually 14 times larger.
2. Visual Reality: Africa is larger than the US, China, Western Europe, and India combined. It's time the maps used in our classrooms and newsrooms reflect that reality.
3. Proportional Representation: Replacing Mercator with an equal-area projection like Equal Earth ensures geographic accuracy, ending visual bias that shrinks the Global South.
4. isn't just about geography- it shapes how we perceive power, scale, and importance on the global stage.
