If we started using the hashtag #breannamanning, do you think that would help or hinder Manning’s “volume” in the public social sphere? Would people who were less-than-fully informed understand or even notice messages about “Breanna”, when they expect “Bradley”?

I think that it’s too late in this court-of-the-public to change the keywords used, but I hope that if Manning is ever released s/he will have a chance to decide which names and pronouns are used in future coverage and appearances.

It’s sort of a mini-tragedy that Manning was hoping to change identity towards “Breanna” shortly before arrest, and now the world knows “Bradley”. I doubt it will be easy to reverse this, if Manning even gets the chance.
