We are learning about Andrew Jackson life in class. Which lead us to the question should Andrew Jackson be replaced by Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill? We have been doing a lot of research on this topic and I’ve come to believe that Harriet Tubman should and deserves to replace Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill. In class, we’ve learned that Andrew Jackson has done many horrible things, while Harriet Tubman did well for her whole life. Although I am telling you one perspective on this, there are still people who believe that Andrew Jackson should not be replaced, others believe that Harriet Tubman should not fully replace him and that Andrew Jackson should go on the back of the $20 bill. The reason for this is because although he did many wrong decisions, he also did some good ones. We have also have been looking at the controversy surrounding the option of replacing Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill. Ever since looking upon the controversy and doing research about this I have come to believe that you should replace Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill with Harriet Tubman.
The idea of replacing Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill with Harriet Tubman came from The Obama Administration saying that by 2020 there would be new faces on paper money, but ever since the new treasury secretary came into place he did not agree and neither did the president, so they said that they wouldn’t be doing anything to the current bills. The reason for this was because Mnuchin said that the people currently on the bills have been on there for centuries so why change them now. The reason i am writing now is because i strongly disagree with this, so i will try my very hardest to convince you to change your minds and continue with the plan that The Obama Administration started. One reason why Andrew jackson should

Hello, my name is Leslie L. I go to North Boone Middle school. We are learning about Andrew Jackson life in class. Which lead us to the question should Andrew Jackson be replaced by Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill? We have been doing a lot of research on this topic and I’ve come to believe that Harriet Tubman should and deserves to replace Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill.

One reason why Andrew jackson should be removed is that when he enacted the indian removal act to move them to the indian territory, the only thing he didn’t see is that many would not want to leave the land where their family begun. In this case he decided that any native that did not want to leave would have to face the military which would result in many deaths. The deaths of the natives did not stop there. In fact,“Jackson’s indian removal policy” stas on The Trail of Tears itself 4,000 natives died from diseases, starvation, and violence from the military.this proves that Jackson didn’t care how many or who’s lives he took and if that’s what you think a national hero acts like you’re wrong, a national hero would take time to try and convince them to sell their land instead of manipulating them or negotiate with them to sell their land but they could stay there. On the other hand when HArriet Tubman was freeing slaves there was some that believed that there was no life beyond the one they have as a slave, yet she did not force them to come with her she simply tried to explain to them their situation, but if they decided not to come then he left them there as they wanted to be. Another reason why andrew should be removed is that he claimed to be a man of the people or should i say the rich. The reason i say this is because one of his many not fully thought out plans was “killing the bank”. He claimed that it was greater good of the people, but what he did not know is that the Second Bank of the United States could/was helping the poor like farmers expanded their lands, support heir family, buy useful thing that they would use on a day to day bases. To be exacted Andrew Jackson once said so proudly “I killed the bank” he also didn’t like the idea of the bank just handing out loans to the people that probably could never pay back to the bank. What i mean is that he grew up as a common folk yet he basically goes against everything they say or want. Then again Harriet Tubman did what she knew was right and freed as many slaves impossible because Harriet Tubman was not selfish like Andrew Jackson, in fact, she most likely did not care what happened to her as long as she freed slaves.
I hope you will agree with me that you should replace Andrew jackson with Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill because i do not want my kids to think that a hero first thing to solve a problem is to kill. Plus it would be nice for them to have a woman role model that basically is saying that no one is less or more than each other because at the end we are all alike in someway.I want to thank you for taking the time out of your day to read my letter and re-take this into consideration. Once again thank you
