On Wednesday, April 20, Treasury Secretary Jacob J. Lew announced that Harriet Tubman will replace Andrew Jackson, the seventh President of the United States, on the $20 bill. The former slave and abolitionist is the first African-American, and the first woman in over a century, to be featured on the face of U.S. currency. The last female represented on U.S. notes was Martha Washington, who appeared on the $1 silver certificate from 1886 to 1957, when the certificates were discontinued.

- ya boy7년 이하We talked about this in History class. While many view Jackson as a hero who conquered the British in the final battle of the War of 1812, he owned several slaves and disobeyed orders. He was ordered to invade and not to attack when we were gaining Florida into the US, and Jackson invaded and captured Spanish people living there. Jackson wrote to the free black men of Georgia to help stand for their country, but at the same time he bought more and more slaves. I support Tubman in this matter. She helped many slaves escape to freedom through the Underground. Also, there are enough men on bills. Only one woman was featured, Martha Washington, on a bill, and that was only for a short while! In conclusion, I say that Harriet Tubman should replace Andrew Jackson on the $20.00 dollar bill.
