Do you think Harriet Tubman should be a great choice for the $20 bill or should it be a woman more recent in history? Think about it. Harriet Tubman represented escaping from slavery. She risked her life many times help others become free from slavery. However, we are all slaves to the money. Everything down to the water we drink has a dollar amount on it. Yet even though we are slaves to money, money also represents power. By putting her or any other Black woman on the bill it gives us more power and credibility.
Really the only bill I would want Harriet Tubman on is a collectible. Her face on the bill is too much of a historical moment for us to see it and then easily give it away for $20 worth of food.
