This is the splash screen on access (to provide context).

Anyway, all this made me think about your approach to this on Bluesky, emphasizing Jews as indigenous

By comparison, this is North America. This is where my session defaulted to.

We spent thirty minutes last night tracking down from the original NEA email to how you get to this map

It’s actually a web app of Indigenous People where you have to scroll to get to the screenshot
