This is awesome, well deserved, and well over due in my opinion and others I've talked to. The thing is, though, when this bill begins circulation with the new face, lots of whites and black won't know who it is or the significance thereof. Granted, it's relevant to blacks for argument's sake. Definitely gonna frame one.

There is also a very profound Caucasian female who doesn't quite receive her due and her name is Juliette Hampton Morgan. Her story is amazing and I wrote a paper on her in school just to be different and to highlight what kind of person she was. This link is worth checking out for those who are genuinely connected with why we have systemic issues lurking in our culture outside of the BLM business.

-From Socialite to Social Activist
In 1939, 16 years before the famous Montgomery Bus Boycott, Morgan began writing letters to the Montgomery Advertiser, the city's local newspaper, denouncing the horrible injustices she witnessed on the city buses. In these letters, she said segregation was un-Christian and wrong, and the citizens of Montgomery should do something about it. The response was immediate: Morgan lost her job at a local bookstore.

One morning as she rode the bus, Morgan watched a black woman pay her fare and then leave the front door of the bus to re-enter through the back door, as was the custom. As soon as the black woman stepped off, the white bus driver pulled away, leaving the woman behind even though she'd already paid her fare. Incensed, Morgan jumped up and pulled the emergency cord. She demanded the bus driver open the door and let the black woman come on board. No one on the bus, black or white, could believe what they were seeing. In the days that followed, Morgan pulled the emergency cord every time she witnessed such injustices.-


Yep, she knew exactly what blacks were going through. If only we had more whites likes her instead of so many of the Daisy Domergue types.
