U.S. Mint To Honor Maya Angelou And 4 Other Notable Women On Quarters

[C_Clayton_Jones]

I don't understand why anyone would have a problem with this.

For the racist right, it’s yet another example of white grievance politics – that America is being ‘taken away’ from whites, that ‘white culture’ is being minimized and diminished.

With regard to women in general on currency, it violates the reactionary right’s devotion to ‘tradition,’ it represents positive, beneficial change conservatives fear.

I wish Dumpster Don hadn’t riled them up so much.
They were bad enough BEFORE 2015!

They were likely already riled up, ready to be exploited and taken advantage of by Trump the consummate grifter and con artist.

So what it comes down to is they need to get a grip.

Why is this a problem for people? I'm all for it.

If we're OK with Andrew "I Hate the Bank" Jackson on the 20, there's no reason we can't carve out some space on the back of one year's run of quarters for some notable women.

This is interesting.

Very few women have been on our currency. I'm glad 5 more will be added.

It's about time.

Her poetry sucks

But if the corrupt swamp rats in washington want to put her face on a coin no harm done

I rather see a coin run with Star Trek characters. More interesting. Being black hasn't been cool for a long time now. I think Eddie Murphy was the last guy to make that work.

Obama and Kamala made it work fer dem.

Neither of them are cool.

If the title of this thread was
"U.S. Mint To Honor Sally Ride And 4 Other Notable Women On Quarters," none of these repugs would have a problem with it.

She's undeserving

That is your opinion.
Also not your call.

My tax money and my currency--don't appreciate it being given away to idiots who are undeserving. Who puts poets on money...especially bad poets? Its crazy stupid.

'Right, but you don't have a problem with racist and traitors being put on it.

But everyone's a wacist to you, aren't they?

And your concern about traitors, pretty funny coming from a supporter of Kaepernic.

So are you saying their are no racist or traitors on US currency.

What I said, was clear. THe bit where you had to make up what I said, was you choosing to LIE, so that you could try to distract from the fact that what I said was clearly right.

What did I state that was clearly wrong?

I pointed out, that everyone is wacist to you.

No racist are racist too me.

That bullshit. Why are you talking bullshit? You don't expect to be taken seriously when you say such stupid shit, do you?

That's more bullshit, I call racist out for the racist they are, if the hood fits wear it.

Look in the mirror for the racist, moron!

Ah GMCprivate is that all you got.

It's something you are sorely lacking, ghetto trash! The Truth!

Ghetto trash, hmmm now that's original. I guess the Nword is coming next.

He didn't hate banks, he was opposed to a national bank.

He hated black folks or is that ok in your book.

That comment has absolutely nothing to do with mine. Stop trying so hard.

Agreed. And the nation as a whole, the world as a whole, will pay the prices as we continue our decline.

Back during their days, you could buy any of those women for 80 of those quarters.

One could buy you for two bits, you fucking whore.

Pellinore either does not know history or chooses to misstate history

Either way it contributes to tje great divide in society today

We have Susan B. Anthony and Sacagawea dollars — nothing should be wrong with that in the spirit of Lady Liberty — but women should be honored for more generic accomplishment, not as being female for the sake of being female.

They are being honored for their accomplishments, perhaps you should read up on what those are.

Please don't be as stupid as JGalt.

What accomplishments? Never heard of anyone of them before this thread and in the big scheme of things, none of those women have any effect on my daily life unless they were good at making sammiches.

Yawn.

You're probably right. Just toss them in the city hall water fountain and forget about it....

This is the coinage of a Treasury Department with a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms that ruined our lives on NICS and other blacklists with mental health smut and other subtle and not-so-subtle character smears without so much as a proper criminal conviction in court.

I said "the bank," not banks. Yes, I am aware, but "Andrew 'I Opposed the National Bank' Jackson" just didn't have that extra zip.

You can't give either of those coins away, apparently nobody wants them. What I don't understand is why Sacagawea? If you think about it, she was instrumental in the eventual genocide against the Native Americans.

If she hadn't helped Lewis and Clark explore the Louisiana Territory, they would have wandered around until they got lost, and would have been eaten by cannibal Indians.
