Harriet Tubman makes the $20

[Tictac]

Cool by me! What did 'Old Hickory' do anyway?

But they should use this picture of her. She was after all a gun toting Republican.

Black excellence.

By the time they get around to printing these out, $20 will buy you half a happy meal.

Congratulations!

She was after all a gun toting Republican.

She carried the revolver when she was moving escaping slaves between safe houses. She told every slave she rescued that if they turned around and tried to go back, she would shoot them in the back herself. She had to, because if anyone went back, they could give up all the safe house locations.

So?

What exactly does this do for black people?

What did Andrew Jackson do for white people?

As long as the money spends why should I care?

Absolutely. This chick called me earlier saying she was so happy because of this.......

I honestly couldn't care less. I don't even spend cash like that. I swipe my card for almost everything.

What did Andrew Jackson do for white people?

Defy a Supreme Court ruling that forcibly removed the Cherokee, Semiole, and Choctaw from their ancestoral homes in the Southeastern United Stated.

I'm all for a pro-gun Republican replacing a Democrat on the $20 bill.

 

[Jaylan]

Deserved for Tubman.

Jackson was no great man or president. And I don't just mean the trail of tears.

It means they can't blame white people anymore.

Yup. Martin Luther king was also a republican. Andrew Jackson started the democratic party. The kkk were democrats also. The khlan started to oppose republican legislation that gave blacks rights.

Here in Canada, we continue to wait for a (likely) lesbian feminist to show up on our bank note.

Won't be long methinks

Can we please stop with the bull**** that Martin Luther King was a republican. There is no proof of this. He did not align with either political party

Its pathetic how some people are so desperate to align themselves with historical figures by use of bisaed partisan political points.

Even if he wasn't a registered republican, his values were certainly more right leaning. The premise of everything he fought for is based on freedom of people not government control or forced cultural brainwashing.

The left today is all about more government control to the point of infringing on individuals rights. Telling people what to think and what to tolerate is not freedom it's fascism.

I highly doubt MLK would support fascism. Not to say he'd support rhinos. Bush 2 wasn't a republican, him and obama are not fundamentally that different. Just saying MLK was right leaning.

 

[Jaylan]

His values? Dude, southern conservatives hated MLK in his day.

He was most certainly a man with progressive politics. Right leaning my ass. He certainly wasn't when compared to his contemporaries.

Southern conservatives like J. Edgar Hoover.
