To the racists such as tank and odium:
Try as you might you cannot erase history. Dismissing even the image of an African woman on a single coin, or the image of and African American woman, Harriet Tubman, on a single piece of currency will not erase, diminish or contradict the achievements and pride the African American people have brought to our nation.
The very thought that people can be relegated to second class status on your warped, narrow and idiotic opinion is not just offensive to Americans, but anathema to our national heritage.
Yours is a shameful heritage of bigotry, fear, suspicion and hate that has been thoroughly rejected by all who really understand the greatness of our nation. You are free to hold your shameful opinions just as others are free to maintain that true sound fidelity can only be obtained by listening to wax cylinders on an Edison phonograph. It's your opinion, but it does not mean it's right, fair, accurate or the opinion of the majority.
