@PattyBeamer @yashar Patty, the mural was still in process when this photo was taken, so the hand wasn't painted yet. The mural is now finished and the hand is filled in. https://t.co/DJzsIkF7O2

3. Breathtaking.

This could be written for her.

Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!

Perhaps a few words changed, yet she is a Statue of Liberty.

Beautiful, irisblue.

Thank you.

4. We all would, should we be given the opportunity...

but in this administration, they would wish to pit us against each other so they might harm us all. It, and what they do, is literally the first rule in the book of fascism First they divide and then they make a meal of the next.

5. So much symbolism in that gorgeous mural!

Love the wall broken down under her foot, her strong hand reaching to carry you over it to freedom.


Damn.

The little girl touching her hand is powerful.

8. Trump's Treasury Secretary Mnuchin

Has cancelled putting Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The U.S. Treasury will not introduce a redesigned $20 bill picturing escaped slave and abolitionist Harriet Tubman next year as planned, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said on Wednesday.

In 2016, the Treasury Department said it would replace former President Andrew Jackson’s image on the front of the bill with that of Tubman by 2020, along with redesigns of the $5 and $10 bill.

President Donald Trump has called the inclusion of Tubman on the $20 bill an example of “pure political correctness.”

As a presidential candidate, Trump suggested Tubman would be better-suited for the $2 bill, a note that is not widely circulated.
