How Maps Lie

- From world maps where Greenland appears larger than Africa to historical maps that show European claims to the world but leave off its actual indigenous occupants, to Google Earth which shows different political boundaries to different users depending on what country they're in, maps distort our picture of the world around us. In this presentation from Toronto Centre Place, John Hamer looks at how maps convey different worldviews both accidentally and deliberately.
I hadn't thought about it until you said it, but it's true! LOL. If we see it on a map, our first learned reaction is to believe it. I especially liked how you put all the different countries inside the land mass of Africa. Anyway, thank you for the work you do!
The tribes shown are the ones the European were in direct contact with at the time. Southern Ontario had been essentially ethnically cleansed of their original inhabitants the Neur=tral confederacy and Hurons by the 5 nations in about 1650. The Council of the Three Fires of which the Mississauga were a part then drove out the 5 nations both from the north and the west. which is how the Mississauga ultimately ended up along the Credit River.
Enlightening. Didn’t learn that in high school or general us history course in college.
Sometimes maps tell brilliant stories. There's a map of the US Mid-Atlantic with the orientation such that the the cities from Washington, DC to New York stretch from left to right in more or less a straight line which follow the fall line.
Then conclusion of the matter? "Mankind is insular in nature and tends to view the world through the prism of his own experience". "The center of the world is you!" So the question becomes "What IS the truth?" We can't all be right but we could all be wrong.
Simply thank you !
Maps are very useful and fairly accurate, until you wrap them around a ball.
It’s Flat
It’s a plane with topography, When people say flat earth the common contradicting factor is that there are Mountains and trenches in the ocean.
It's definitely flat. Not some occultic pear. You have to believe in a globe because the horizon is supposed to be a physical edge from a radius of 3959 yet the horizon is an apparent edge where the sky meets the sea or earth. We can see the horizon past what a horizon calculator tells us we should see. Vary few people believed the earth was a globe until recently 19th and 20th century. The opposite of what he says
@@mbhinkle I’ve seen the ice wall!!
This man speaks truth!
Does John Hamer sell or display online the maps that he made?
Why all the candles on the table?
Great lecture. I love maps. Edo is Tokyo by the way.
I would go with a old thousand year old map rather than GPS
Do you have the link to the maps of indigenous people changing over time?
I've had a love of cartography since I was a child. I wish I was able to find a career in the field.
North as up. I am curious about textual metaphysical connections to this as the electrohydrodynamics of the magnetic field is a toroidal upflow. Also of note is almost all 'life' has a clockwise right chirality. Sugars can synthetically be made as the isomer and are indigestible. Are these phenomenon connected?
Thanks fellow being for sharing awareness and insights out loud .As a side NOTE about the earth(dry land) being flat or round or other ? more will be shared with the human race as consciousness becomes more collective
24:00 TripTik!!! I still have some from vacations long ago
i have been watching your videos carefully...Many useful information....a unique and very interesting way of teaching...just one mistake about Cyprus...Cyprus is one unified island, but half of it has been militarilly occupied by Turkey....this does not make Turkey a co-owner of the island of Cyprus....It has been occupied by FORCE..... thank you.
Did you intentionally not use the Gleason Map? You could do an entire lecture on that map.
The title of this nearly the same as a well known book by Mark Monmonier.
Is this the same author ?
I tattooed a map of the world on my back shoulder to shoulder and fill in the places I visit like a Winabego driver does when he drives to a state for the first time
Damn you must have long arms.

How does the instructor know that the earth is a sphere. I'm not saying that it isn't, but I don't know, how is he so sure?
They know the true scale and wealth of africa , so they make it look small and irrelevant , so imagine if africa kept its wealth and resources for itself ? As the former french president said "without africa , europe will be a third world group of countries " so just remember the west , europe etc is only rich because of africa , AND africa is poor because of all the theft and destruction and dividing up africa amoung europe.FACT , so next time you see poor africa , dont feel sad or sorry , feel ANGRY about the theft and injustice againts africa , thats why its in the condition it is in , plus , third world debt (african countries oweing european countries money for its OWN resources 😳, can you imagine , plus a million other factors . Honesty is the best policy .
In the Netherlands Google Maps doesn't go spherical.
What?
@@TobeornottooB Google services are different in each country. Google maps stays on Mercator projection in the Netherlands.

Real men love maps!
Hahahahaha........pretty one sided on the kind of maps you wanted to show on this platform....aw shit, my apologies. I didn't read the title properly. I fully agree. gud on ya mate !!
Hold up he said not a perfect sphere bs

Naw mate, @1:23 If seafaring people can see the mast and not the ship that doesn’t mean the earth is curved. Because if you give the same seafaring people a telescope they be able to see the whole ship. Our eyes are limited what we can take in. Flat earth is very real, although I do not believe it is flat I do understand that there is topography.
Time zones.

@centre place I've got the map of the world...too scale...make me famous x

The earth is flat. !!!!!
Wake up !!!
I usually wake up when the sun appears from beneath the horizon. Hint: Horizon = earth is curved. Or do you think the horizon is the edge of the world?
@@AJWRAJWR too many wrong ideas in your mind, starting for assuming that there's an edge, the universe as indoctrinated by many years is not existent.
The sun and moon are really close and they are just light projections.
I know that they have done a good job indoctrinating us in to their impossible heliocentric universe... But is si easy to see behind it that just takes the desire of looking for it.
Anyone who wants to do it. Can.
And the Bible is real. Nothing but The truth
Of course, the Earth is flat. Because you say so And you know-it-all.
No you are the one, who is holly and knows all because the Bible says so......@@herminepursch2470
He is grossly incorrect with his assumptions of the Torah.
What map was that Of
@@herminepursch2470 Well, this was two years ago and I would have to watch this again before I respond.
I just found this channel.
Just trying to learn.
The somewhat insecure jiggle after he states something is a bit annoying…I know some of you will say he is perhaps a bit nervous, but just wanted to point it out. That little laugh does not let me view what he presents as truthful.
Just to say thanks again, from the Downunder side of the small world.🤗🦘
