For students in the 2014 Decolonizing Minds course, this video will be very familiar. Presented by Swedish global health professor Hans Rosling, the five minute video is a visualization of the progress of 200 countries in the last 200 years, measured as life expectancy against income per capita. The video is a captivating visualization of the data; however, it ends on an optimistic message of global convergence that may not convince those of us who study the silenced narratives behind the statistics.
