As much as I can't stand everything being about race right now I will have to agree American history needs to have more genuine diversity seriously. I know more white American history then white people know more black American history. That's the problem if I can name more historical figures that are white why is it that they can't do the same equally? And not because we didn't contribute it's because they're not interested now it would be fair if they were honest about it instead of trying just to be dismissive but we need to learn to understand that the history is genuinely dominated you can't just sweep everybody else under the rug

Yes they are in American history but most people only genuinely know maybe about four or five individuals in black American history.

Regarding Harriet Tubman that's a little bit difficult to say. Not that I disagree with you but the time period is different. Without Harriet Tubman Martin Luther King would have never existed. He rode off her coattail. If Martin Luther King's family was already here during the time of emancipation and the underground railroad his family would have never lived if it hadn't been for had read Tubman if you're going to be technical.what I think is I don't believe that they should put her on the $20 bill if anything create a completely different denomination of money whether it be $150 bill I don't know or something of that sort but to take away from the currency I think takes away from history we need all history not just white or black
