Um...allow me to be the voice of reason here, because you're certainly not. People can have opinions that [gasp!] differ from yours without being racists. That is a fact. It really is that simple.
Like I said, anyone who has a problem with this is an admitted racist. Simple. Sorry the truth hurts.

Melt the pennies down and resell the copper... Then you will get more "worth" from your money, than a printed piece of paper, that has nothing backing it.


$100 in(old) pennies, will pay you almost $400, in copper weight.
The new pennies made with the different backs, have a lot of tin and are no longer pure copper.

$2.24 an ounce, as of noon today
A $1 roll of pennies weighs....
That's why I save all my pre 1983 pennies.

If they had to use a black woman, Im glad they picked ole' Tubs. At least she did something meaningful and was pretty bad ass.

If only we can find a black, asain, gay transexual, we could knock out several types with one bill.

IF they wanted a "woman" they could have put Jenner on the $20.


It would reflect the sign of the times and state of affairs currently in the US.

I agree that Harriet Tubman and women overall should not celebrate this travesty: https://www.washingtonpost.com/poste...f-the-20-bill/
