The Lincoln Memorial thing is a cool idea. I'm just picturing how crowded the back of the 10 and 5 are going to look now with 3-5 people on them

Good time as any to share the story of how Harriet Tubman led an army of bad bitches to upend slavery

Breitbart going with this headline:

Black Republican Harriet Tubman to replace Jackson on $20 bill

Not brave enough to dive in to the comments.

I dove in there. It's about what you expect. Horrible people in there.

Gotcha. I was wondering how loyal KKK members were going to pay their dues with this evil black people woman money. Thank the good lord!

I knew about this but this video was fucking amazin

On the subject, freed blacks acting as spies for the Union was a really important thing

weshes195 · Apr 20, 2016

Holy cow, that is amazing! Both representing Tubman and screwing over Jackson, a man people should despise.

commedieu · Apr 20, 2016

Ah still on the back.

Yawn.

Same here, for an emergency, I do keep a single 20 stashed away in the car and in my bag. That way, should I ever need a cab or something, I will be fine until I can get to the bank.

Tubman is absolutely deserving on being in currency, and I also like the idea of tweaking the 5 a bit too. I just really dislike Hamilton and the, well, you know, start of the seeds of the Fed. I'm not a libertarian, but that is something I kinda see eye to eye on with some of them, about the Fed. I'd be so happy if they got rid of Hamilton. Getting rid of Hamilton, AJ, and Grant while tweaking the 5 in one fell swoop is probably asking for too much though.

FOH. Ulysses S Grant was an American hero.

Everyone on a bill is an American hero, each for different reason.

AJ for me for helping kill the seeds of what we now call the Fed, though the Fed still won in the end.

Seriously, how likely is Jackson being on the back is finalized? It's really bothering me so much to have him share it with Harriet Tubman.

It's probably a secret government mandate that they have to troll Jackson at all times.

WTF.

Was hoping my grandfather of 90 would get to hold one of these babies. If I have to wait until 2030, get Jackson's tired ass off the biill.

dLMN8R · Apr 20, 2016

What a perfectly sad encapsulation of American politics.

Legitimizing a horrific human being by keeping him on the same bill as the heroic women who successfully undermined everything he ever stood for.

Just like every bullshit cable news interview where they think they need to legitimize "both sides" of an argument which clearly has a correct and incorrect side.

Lonestar · Apr 20, 2016

2030 is far enough from now, that I'm not 100% sure I'll still be alive.

Yeah you will, paper money not so much.

Secret Fawful · Apr 20, 2016

I don't believe this. If people could get Harriet on the bill in the first place, there should be a way to get this into circulation faster. This is too important not to happen now.

Paper Money's already 97% dead to me. But I still somehow accumulate buckets of pennies...

Also, 50 in 2030 :|

Cimarron · Apr 20, 2016

Excellent. Would it make me a bad person if this makes me want to go to the deep south and pay for everything with twenties now? Lol!

In all seriousness I can imagine that thier is going to be some very salty racist tears shed over this! 😃

I tend to agree. I'll be suprised if paper currency is still a thing at all in 2030. Why do it when it doesn't matter anymore? Fuck symbolism; I want Harriet on my money now.

Black Mamba · Apr 20, 2016

At the end of her life, it turns out, Tubman received a pension check every month for being both a veteran and the widow of a veteran. The amount? $20.

Interesting factoid!

GK86 · Apr 20, 2016

I can't wait for the Huelen thread in 2076, where he goes to a store and demands the cashier give him a $20 Jackson, instead of a $20 Tubman and asks us if he was being unreasonable.

First thing I thought of when I read this story. Let's get it.

Got this gem from the Breitbart website comments section:

Jackson was a key player in forming the Constitution and Bill of Rights

He was a very smart child.

RecRoulette · Apr 20, 2016

They are keeping Jackson on the back of the $20.

So you're saying he has been told to sit at the back of the bill?

Seems appropriate to show both sides of American history, I suppose. At least he got sent to the back.

Jackson will still be on the 20. They're adding Tubman not removing Jackson.

So it's pointless now? Jackson on the back and it will take until 2030.

I got curious so checked out what RaptureReady was saying about this.

Oh boy.
