Well, maybe just a little:
Once upon a time our national currency, coins and stamps featured persons or symbolism of monumental importance to our nations history. Presidents, Native Americans, Columbia, eagles or prominent public officials (e.g. Hamilton, Franklin).
We did not honor actors, social activists or pop culture hero’s on our stamps and money. The people and symbols portrayed were important. Today we have cheapened everything so everyone gets some kind of warped representation. What’s next, are we going to put the first Samoan plumber on a dollar bill ??
Excellent commentary. Thank you.
