acf-co24-2-9_8 | For 10 points, name this founder of the Woodlands style of painting. | [
"Norval Morrisseau",
"Copper Thunderbird until read"
] | acf-co24-2-9 | 8 | This artist’s adoption of the Eckankar faith inspired his use of copper, yellow, and turquoise as “healing” colors. This artist showed figures in red robes “shaking the tent” in a work painted on birchbark. A documentary about this artist suggests that teenager Scott Dove may have been murdered by drug dealer Gary Lamont. Kevin Hearn sued the Maslak McLeod Gallery after learning that he bought a forged work attributed to this artist, as seen in the Jamie Kastner film There Are No Fakes. In 2024, works attributed to this artist were removed by McGill University due to revelations that child labor had produced thousands of forgeries. This artist established a style of painting espoused by Carl Ray and Daphne Odjig. A member of the Midewiwin society gave the name Copper Thunderbird to this leading member of the “Indian Group of Seven.” For 10 points, name this founder of the Woodlands style of painting. | Norval Morrisseau [accept Copper Thunderbird until read] (Kevin Hearn is a member of Barenaked Ladies.) | [

The 1991 PTE experiment at JET used an 11/89 mixture of these two species, although an optimal 50/50 mix is assumed in Lawson’s criterion.

One of these two species is used in radioluminescent powerless lighting systems, and is produced from the other of these species through neutron capture as a byproduct of CANDU reactors. The 1991 PTE experiment at JET used an 11/89 mixture of these two species, although an optimal 50/50 mix is assumed in Lawson’s criterion.

] | acf-co24-3-4 | 1 | In this colony, girls were hired for a short-lived plan to spin spider-silk from golden orb-weavers. Though it was later used in the Maghreb, insurgents in this colony were the first targets of the “oil spot” strategy of an administrator who placed its ethnic groups under a system of indirect rule called the “politics of race,” Joseph Gallieni. Rival ethnic groups in this colony formed the Party for the Disinherited and the MDRM. Frantz Fanon critiqued a book written after the bloody suppression of a 1947 uprising in this colony, Prospero and Caliban by Octave Mannoni. The 1895 “red shawl” rebellion started among a côtier ethnic group in this colony, the Sakalava. This colony was formed after highland members of the Hova caste fought occupiers in a war that ended with their last queen’s exile to Réunion. For 10 points, what colony did the French found by overthrowing Ranavalona III’s Merina Kingdom? | French Madagascar [or Colony of Madagascar and Dependencies; or Colonie de Madagascar et dépendances] | [
