Maya Angelou 25¢ Piece Released

Part of a series on American women. How'd they pick her as the first is astonishing and so very woke.

Oh my. What a sad looking coin.

Aretha Franklin ought to be pissed...
She is a much more famous poet than this one...
Dolly Parton or Farah Faucet should be on there.
At least someone that I've heard of before.
 
I'm totally lost...

I've never heard of this person...
Never read her poetry...
I thought that this was going to be about INFLUENTIAL people.

How is a great unknown influential?

Why not have Bubba's wife Mildred on the coin? She was truly a saint for putting up with him.
How about Alexander Hamilton's mistress? She kept him from becoming President...
She actually has a lot more press that this unknown poet does.

Not true. The fact is that he was not a natural born citizen as he was born in the British West Indies.

Also, a mitigating factor beyond that is he was dead.

Your ignorance is no excuse for others not to honor her.
