Not celebrating racists and genocidists isn't erasing history. You don't have to put the worst marks of our history on a pedestal to be educated.

Is it still worth 20 bucks?

If so I don’t give a damn who’s picture is on it.

Whataboutism on slavery.


I didn’t read where he tried to downplay white slave owners. Slavery is bad and nobody should do it. He was pointing out the hypocrisy of it all. White people should have to apologize and pay reparations for slavery but the blacks that were slavery shouldn’t?

You can’t just forget about the fact that some blacks also profited off slavery.

You libtards just won't let that slavery thing go will you? We had slavery.....we fought a war to stop it......we spent trillions of dollars over decades and decades in an effort to rectify the injustice and you bleeding heart whining liberals just REFUSE to let it go.

It really shouldn't be difficult to go "yeah slavery was awful" without "but black slave owners and Africa, don't forget!"

It's not hypocrisy, it's largely irrelevant and a pretty stupid comparison

Not that big of a deal. If they replaced her with Grant on the $50 I think the response would be different around here.

LOL. This is what liberals say when around decent folk. When around liberals, they're 100% liberal.
