Frederick Douglass 100% should be on the $20. Everyone already knows who Harriet Tubman was, we have monuments and museums to the underground railroad. it would be good to spread the love around.

If it were up to me, it would be North American wildlife. Bald Eagle on the $1, Bison on the $5, maybe a Grizzly Bear on the $20.

Koalas March posted:I was trying to keep it to 2 bills. I had a giant list but I wanted to save some for other people to pick. Yeah, I could see the $20 and the $50 being changed. Fredrick Douglass/Harriet Tubman would be my choice for the $20 and Ida B. Wells/MLK for the $50. I'd say we should also adopt different coinage but considering how everybody absolutely hates taking the Sacajawea dollars it would basically be a commemorative pressing and not actually in use. Same with the $2.

Koalas March posted:Oh and since I started black people on money mini derail, who would yall put on our money? Good picks. I'm more about who I wouldn't put on money. No president, no politician, no military leader. Our money should be covered in civilian heroes like the ones you listed above, figures for civil rights, philosophers, authors, and scientists. And it shouldn't be limited to one person per bill, it should rotate regularly.

CascadeBeta posted:What I would give to see a history book entry on Trump from 100 years in the future. My god, how will history judge this period in time? "Trump wasn't racist himself and hated the institution of slavery, but as a noble son of New York felt that he had to support the great lost cause of police murder of black civilians. If the war hadn't happened, those things would have ended on their own." Plaque text, "General Trump Mounts the World" statue, U.N. Plaza. Erected 2063.

Ida B Wells and Frederick Douglass sound like better choices than Harriet Tubman if only because Tubman is on the very short list of "safe" black Americans that every kid learns about in school (along with George Washington Carver). That's where I can see how it could be viewed as tokenism.Rigel posted:If it were up to me, it would be North American wildlife.

Just replace all historical figures with modern day ones and cycle them out. Put Maya Angelou on one side and John Cena on the other, when was the last time you saw a fifty dollar bill anywaysCalaveron posted:Make money into a collectible card game It already is, it's called "Capitalism"

No seriously gently caress you. http://fortune.com/2017/08/26/charlottesville-violence-leaked-chats/ quote:Well before a white nationalist “Unite the Right” demonstration turned deadly in Charlottesville this month, attendees were planning for violence, according to leaked online chats. In private chat channels, they shared advice on weaponry and tactics, including repeatedly broaching the idea of driving vehicles through opposition crowds. After the vehicular attack which killed counterprotestor Heather Heyer, users of the channel celebrated the event.
