I had the idea for @blackjoy after thinking about how #racism becomes ingrained through seeing negative images of black people in mass media. Out of that came a bot that toots pictures of #BlackJoy.

For a long time I've wanted to do the same for #indigenous people, but life has gotten in the way. I still want to do so.

In the meantime, I want to recommend @indigneousphoto - tooting archival photos of indigenous people as they are, or were. Let the pictures and stories speak for themselves.
