Trump said Ivanka should be on the 20 dollar bill.
I'm fine with that.

We could make everyone happy and put the face of a woman on the EBT card.

Looks like Harriet Tubman is replacing Jackson. Based on the photo, it's hard to tell that it's not a man still on the bill.

My guys here at work think its a good idea.
They have already started calling their $20 bags of various drugs Tubman's instead of dubs. That's progress.
Hey man you got a Tubman.
Aloha!

This shit is laughably (((transparent))).
- Keep Hamilton, the man that helped create the FED.
- Remove Jackson, the man that killed the bank.

I browse a predominately black forum as well as this one and a couple others, and seeing the difference in opinion is interesting. On the predominantly black american, they think Jackson is an evil piece of shit because he owned slaves, and murdered native americans.
They also think putting Harriet Tubman on currency that was used to buy and sell slaves is a perverse.
It would be like putting Jesus on a cross...

This is disappointing. I was hoping it would be Oprah.

I'm actually shocked that these bills became a reality.

Truthfully, if they wanted a black woman on the $20 bill, I'm shocked that they didn't use Rosa Parks. She's more of a staple in mainstream culture than Tubman. I learned about Tubman for about a month in 4th grade, but we went over Parks multiple times.

This thread peaked my interest with Andrew Jackson. What are some good books on the guy?

Andrew Jackson would hate his image being used on Federal Reserve Notes. I consider this a win for Andrew Jackson.

Tubman was a righteous woman, and a hero. She did great things, I am proud as hell America saw fit to put her on the 20 dollar bill. God bless her and god bless America.

I don't like things that are different. If you ask me, they should go back to the pre-WW2 style of just having a figure of liberty on the money instead of this politically correct idolatry. The reason American money initially didn't have portraits on it was because it was considered a monarchist thing to stamp the head of state's face on coins.

Have nothing but respect for Harriet Tubman, and have no objection to this. However, I believe this was a subtle way to push more feminism down our throats.
The real story is how the back of the $10 bill will have the history of women's suffrage movement, pointing out the 19th amendment giving women the right to vote. Why does this have to be on a banknote? Are we incapable of learning this fact? Also, if we wanted to include an African-American who played a pivotal role in the abolitionist movement, why didn't Frederick Douglas get consideration? Was instrumental, and also contributed to the state later in life and was the first African-American to get a vote for POTUS.
Another victory for leftist feminists, and another surrender by a demoralized American populace. The back of the $10 bill will be another daily reminder of how America was founded on misogyny and sexism, and will open the doors to remove more men just so the left can piss on traditional America.
