President Andrew Jackson’s run as the face of the $20 bill may be coming to an end.
Women On 20s, also known as W20, an organization dedicated to putting a woman on the $20 bill, recently compiled a list of prominent females who they see fit to take Jackson’s place. The initial candidates included Susan B. Anthony (who was once on the dollar coin before being replaced by Sacagawea), Eleanor Roosevelt, and Rosa Parks. The winner, selected after a calculation of over 600,000 votes, was Harriet Tubman.
Upon today’s announcement, Harriet Tubman became a trending topic on Twitter in the United States.
