Kate says, "​I was torn about using Ben Franklin's iconic political cartoon, as its original purpose was far more unsavory than the purpose it grew to fill. Ultimately though, "Join, or Die," more popularly known as a rallying call to the colonies to join against British oppression, is too powerful an image, and it's adopted message too close to our current plight, for me to opt against it."
