Quite dishonest of all...
I never said I opposed Mrs Tubman.
I asked WHY?
Why is this change being made and WHY is she the choice?
Again - not holding my breath for a straight answer......
Maybe because the recognition of the contributions of women, people of colour, slaves, abolitionists, and war heroes has been sadly lacking on US notes. Mrs. Tubman covers all those in one swell foop.
