                2. Don't want to contribute to problem with unattributed Twitter images, explained eloquently by @rebeccaonion. slate.com/articles/life/history/2014/02/_historyinpics_historicalpics_history_pics_why_the_wildly_popular_twitter.html

              3. Also sensitive to the way that subjecting enslaved people's bodies to gaze of others has a problematic history.

            4. Finally, there's the question of which images I would use for @Every3Minutes, since photos of enslaved people aren't that common.

          5. I'm imagining adding a photo only to @Every3Minutes tweets that don't include a specific role (parent, child, etc) or date … @mgbesq

        6. And even then randomizing things so that a photo would still not be attached to every eligible tweet, raising impact when it is.
