A Long Time Coming
Yesterday, the U.S. Treasury Secretary announced that the nation’s well-known revolutionist, Harriet Tubman, will be replacing Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill. Unfortunately, there was no set date set for when we will see the actual change-over.
But on an equally positive note, five women will be added to the back of the $5 bill in the year 2020.
It’s been a long time coming, but bravo to the Treasury for finally recognizing women for the amazing contributions they have made in this country since its very beginning.
