It was not because the coin featured a woman.
Kids have been studying Harriet Tubman since at least the 80's. First she was going to go on the $10 dollar bill but the Broadway musical Hamilton made him popular again so they put Tubman on the $20 instead.
Stonewall Jackson made his fortune with slaves and was well known for fighting American Indians. So he is not too popular in some circles. When they asked the treasury why Jackson was first put on the bill they did not have an answer. That seems hard to believe, doesn't it?

Damn you and your posts that make sense. We can't have any of that, this is a place where stupid ignorant mostly old white people get together and complain that their whiteness is being stolen from them, along with their country, their religion and their bibles.
Please check your common sense postings at the door when you enter this establishment. Racists white people are trying to work here.
