Forget the $20... Put her on a $500 bill. That's about the value needed when we adjust for inflation from the time the US Government took everything over $100 out of circulation as an attempt to crack down on the underground economy. Tubman was all about the underground railroad. Honor her for that, too.
And, while we're at it, repeal the laws requiring banks to act as government agents when citizens deal in large amounts of cash, as well as the seizure laws that allow the government and its agents to seize monies suspected of being used for criminal activity.
The Bill of Rights says that our papers, personal effects, and persons are not to be seized or searched without due process!
Just when did the Fourth Amendment get repealed? |

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
