Please write a 250-500 word reaction paper to the video with Nina Jablonski entitled “Breaking the illusion of skin color.” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tLsFl6QiFh4) The paper should be approach the video critically. Some possible question prompts: How does video destabilize, change, affirm your understanding of how skin color arose? What does it mean for a scholar of evolution to say that the founder of the theory was wrong? What does this say about science? What are the implications of the evolutionary basis of skin color, in your mind, for societies where skin color is often used to “mark” people with regard to status/privilege/exclusion/inclusion to those societies? You may have other questions you might want to answer that come to mind and those are fine as prompts to your essay. So what do we mean by an essay? Contains an Introduction that presents your argument or the question you are answering. Contains a Body that supports your position Contains a Conclusion that summarizes your attempt (essay comes from the French “to try”) to present the argument and offers a conclusive statement.

RF Scale, Scale Factor, and Map Projections
For this section, you will need a ruler to make measurements on the Mercator map Download Mercator mapof the world provided. You can print the appropriate section of the map. You will need to print it at 115% scale (actual size). If you don’t have access to a printer, you can make measurements directly on your computer screen. Open the map in the free Adobe ReaderLinks to an external site.. Display the map at 115% scale (Note: the scale you need to use will vary depending on the size of your screen. 115% works well for a 13-14 in screen. If your screen is 15-16 in, try using 100%. In a 27 in desktop monitor 75% is about right!).
The scale in a map with a Mercator projection changes latitudinally. Answer the questions below and show your work. Make sure to write down your units.
1. Calculate the RF scale of the Mercator map handout at a) the equator, b) 45°S and c) 75°N (see p. 49, equations 2.2-2.6 in your textbook) Show your work. (3)
Note the following:
Take the width of Africa at the equator to be 3736 km (2321 mi), the width of South America at 45 °S to be 690 km (429 mi), and the distance across Greenland at 75°N to be 1100 km (684 mi).
Parallels are separated by an interval of 15 degrees of latitude.
2. Using the answers to question 1, calculate the scale factor (SF) of the Mercator map of the world at a)the equator, b) 45° latitude and c) 75° latitude. See page 60 and Fig. 3.3 in your textbook: Map Projection Properties > Scale. Show your work. (3)
3. Describe the observed differences between the Mercator and Gall-Peters projection. Which projection is conformal? Which projection is equivalent? Provide a brief explanation for the differences in the appearance of landmasses between projections. Provide evidence from each map to support your answer. Differences in appearance can be explained by discussing the differences in projection family, grid appearance, and the appearance of overlain circles (Tissot’s indicatrixLinks to an external site.). You may refer to your textbook (pp. 72-74) and to this source to determine the appearance of a given projection: Your World Map is Hiding Something and Compare Map ProjectionsLinks to an external site.. (3)
4. You are asked to make a map to compare forest cover per country with the least distortion in South America. Choose a specific projection and explain why. What aspect and central meridian would you choose? (3)
The figure above shows a great circle route between Yokohama, Japan, and San Francisco California on a (i) Gnomonic and a (ii) Mercator projection.
5. In terms of a navigator trying to maintain a constant compass heading, why would the great circle path shown above be difficult to follow exactly? (1)
6. How would both a Gnomonic and a Mercator projection be used together to aid in navigation? (2)
For questions 7 and 8 go to Interactive Album of Map Projections 2.0 (psu.edu)Links to an external site..
7. Create a map that minimizes distortion of Australia. You will need to zoom into Australia (at least two clicks from the world map) and enter an appropriate value for the prime meridian and, depending on the projection, values for standard parallels. Make sure to turn on the distortion ellipses and the graticule. Also, make sure to click “Update Map” after each change. What projection and parameters did you use? Attach a screenshot of your map. (2)
8. Explain how the projection and parameters you’ve chosen provide the best representation of Australia with minimal distortion. (2)

The goal of this assignment is for you to use the four themes of unsettling, resistance, resilience and mapping — as well as the course content in the lectures to date — as a lens through which to view one of the films available.
What do I mean by a lens? A lens is a principle that guides how we look at a problem or material. In our case, we are using the lenses of unsettling, resistance, resilience and mapping to interpret the film.
To help you assess the film, list key messages of the film and align them with the four themes. You might use a table like the one below.
Lens/principle Event or theme from the film
Unsettling
Resistance
Resilience
Mapping
film can be chosen from the four movies: Mashkawi-Manidoo Bimaadiziwin Spirit to Soar, Kanehsatake: 270 Years of Resistance, Trick or treaty, Indian Horse.
When watching the film, notice how certain events and stories in the film align with the rows in your table (e.g. the 4 themes).
Your job is then to create a narrative review of the film that addresses each of the rows in your table.
Try and use knowledge that you have gained from the course lectures so far. For instance, you know that First Nations peoples started to change their patterns of geographical movement and mobility when settlers started to encroach on their lands. This might relate to material presented in your film. In this case, use your writing to illustrate how this aligns with information in the film and also with the theme of resilience.
A final goal is to discuss the events of your film in relation to current geographical events in Canada. For instance, if your film is about land or treaty negotiation, how does that relate to contest over geographies in the present day? Use an example from current affairs (i.e. last ten years).
This assignment should include the table filled in (see above) and a short (500 words max) discussion of the events of the film in relation to current affairs in Canada. At the top of the assignment text box, type the name of the film you assessed. The marking will be based on 4 criteria: skill in aligning film material with any or all of the four themes; relation of the film material and concepts to course content to date (up to and including week 5), writing clarity and skill; and ability to relate events portrayed in the film to contemporary Canadian geography.
IN SUMMARY:
1. Fill in the table with bullet points indicating how the events of the film you reviewed align with the course themes.
2. Write a short (500 words or less) review of the film. The 500 word review is separate from the words in the table.
3. The review should reference things you learned about the in course as well as the relationship of the material in the film to a current events in Canada.
4. If you do not know what a film review should entail, then read some film reviews in the Globe & Mail or other newspapers.
Criteria
1.Alignment of film content with course themes
The four course themes are: unsettling (colonization), resistance, resilience and mapping. You are looking
for a clear articulation between one or more of these themes and the film content. 3marks
2.Relation of the course content to the film message
There have been five course weeks to date. You are looking for how the students linked the film content to
the course content. Look for 4 points (associated with a mark each). 4marks
3.This criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeWriting clarity and skill
You are looking for clear, concise and articulate writing. Use of proper paragraphs, punctuation and
grammar are also important. 4marks
4. This criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeRelation of film content to one or more events in
contemporary Canadian geography
You are looking for the student’s ability to link film content to a contemporary event in Canada. What are the
parallels? Do they make sense? How well do they make the case? 4marks
