Obama misli, da je ženske na denarju dobra ideja – Beyonce On Money
Andrew Jackson, George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, Abraham Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt – ti fantje imajo veliko več skupnega kot njihov status vplivnih oseb v ameriški zgodovini. Prav tako so moški, katerih obrazi se pojavljajo v naši valuti – ključna beseda je moški. Valutni kritiki so pisali Obama, da izrazi svoje nezadovoljstvo glede zastarele države ameriških dolarjev, in Obama se je strinjal, da je pridobitev nekaj žensk obrazov na naš denar “dobra ideja”.
Medtem ko njihova prisotnost ni bila pomembna, ženske niso popolnoma odsotne iz monetarne zgodovine Združenih držav. Bilo je nekaj osupljivih poskusov, da ženskam damo trenutek v ospredju valute, vendar je to vse, kar je kdajkoli doživelo: trenutek. Oba kovanca dolarja Susan B. Anthony in Sacagawea sta bila prekinjena. Helen Keller se je na kratko pojavila v državnih četrtih Alabame. Nekoč je bila Martha Washington edina ženska, ki je bila na sliki o dolarjih. Toda v primerjavi z dolgoživostjo vladavine moških osebnosti nad ameriško valuto so ženske oblike žalostne in kratkotrajne. Z ženskami žensk, katerih dosežki upravičujejo brezčasno priznanje, pravi resnični vodja te situacije je, zakaj nihče od najbolj cenjenih žensk ni (menim, Harriet Tubman, Eleanor Roosevelt, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Rosa Parks, med mnogimi drugimi) se še ni pojavil na papirju?
Če je Obama na krovu, da bi popravil to resno luknjo v monetarnem položaju države, potem lahko le upam, da je prvi red poslovanja? Get Queen Bey na sto dolarskem računu. Ne bi nam daleč, da bi jo dali na nič manj.
Katere druge ženske mislijo, da so vredne, da bi dobili svoj obraz, ki je prilepljen z dolarskim računom? Zvok v spodnjih pripombah.
Slovenian: Andrew Jackson, George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, Abraham Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt – these guys have a lot more in common than just their status as influential figures in American history. They are also men whose faces appear on our currency – the key word being men. Currency critics have written to Obama expressing their dissatisfaction with the outdated state of American dollars, and Obama agreed that adding some womens faces to our money is a “good idea.” While their presence has not been important, women are not completely absent from the monetary history of the United States. There have been some stunning attempts to give women a moment in the spotlight of currency, but thats all theyve ever experienced: a moment. Both the Susan B. Anthony and Sacagawea dollar coins were discontinued. Helen Keller briefly appeared on Alabama state quarters. Once, Martha Washington was the only woman pictured on dollar bills. But compared to the longevity of male personalities reign over American currency, womens forms are sad and short-lived. With women whose achievements justify timeless recognition, the real leader of this situation asks why none of the most esteemed women (I mean Harriet Tubman, Eleanor Roosevelt, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Rosa Parks, among many others) have yet to appear on paper? If Obama is on board to fix this serious gap in the states monetary position, then can we only hope that it is top priority? Get Queen Bey on the hundred dollar bill. It wouldnt be far-fetched to put her on anything less. Which other women do you think are worth getting their faces stuck on a dollar bill? Sound off in the comments below.
