With Washington, Lincoln, Jackson and Franklin all being racist, why don’t they just burn all their money or throw it away like the statues?

I would not mind Frederick Douglas tbh. Pretty good argument for him.

They couldn't do it though. Rap songs about the "Benjamins" would make no sense.

I nominate Pierre Caliste Landry, America's first black mayor. Elected mayor of Donaldsonville in 1868. If he could do that in 1868, in south Louisiana, then he deserves to be honored some way.

He became influential in the Republican Party, establishing the Black Republicans faction and winning election to the Louisiana House of Representatives[6] in 1872 by a large margin.

Wait, never mind. Poor bastard doesn't stand a chance.

I don't think they wanted it nicknamed the Tubby - really don't know though.

I don’t care who is on the money, but I think we should get rid of the penny, the $1 bill, and the $100 bill.

Make a $1 coin, a $2 coin and make $5, $10, $20, $50 out of PVC like the rest of the fricking civilized world does.

They should give all of their racist dollar bills to me. I'll make sure they're dispatched!

There will be an influx of people wanting to get their Benjamin Franklin wearing a bandanna, brandishing a pistol tattoos removed.

They already cancelled Aunt Jemima. They are not putting her on a $20 bill.

I bet Bookman, from Good Times, is going on the $10 bill.

You have to see money on a daily basis for it to make any difference....

...A change in the look of EBT cards would be more effective.
