Harriet Tubman

The decision caps a public campaign asking for a woman to be placed on American paper currency and months of deliberation by the Treasury to replace either Alexander Hamilton on the $10 bill or Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill.

Harriet Tubman will be the first African-American to apoear on U.S paper currency and the first woman in more than a century!

Tubman was an American abolitionist leader who led many slaves to safety using the abolitionist network known as the underground railroad.
