A six-panel infographic compares Alabama’s ancient Cretaceous sediment belt with fertile soil, farm size, historical slave population, Black population, and the 2020 election map. The joke is that geological conditions shaped agriculture and settlement patterns, which influenced demographics and ultimately modern political voting patterns. It is shared as an ironic explanation of how deep historical and environmental factors can affect present-day elections.
