Nothing against Duke Ellington, a fine musician, but is that the first thing that you’d choose to represent DC ?

Aw, come on! It makes perfect sense, if you put on your racist goggles. Meaning, what’s the least white thing from D.C. you can think of and yet is still something or somebody almost everybody can recognize?

Almost all the famous people, buildings and monuments are or are from white people. Once you throw all them out...because you sure as hell don’t want anything associated with whites representin’ da DC hood, there ain’t much left.

I am sure we will all be very familiar with the new designs.

These will be all that we have in our pocket.

As the fella in the next post aptly put it, why not Marion Barry and his famous crackpipe with the phrase almost every adult American from that time well remembers, “The bitch set me up !” ?

The motto should be changed to “bitch set me up”.

Ah, but in all seriousness, if they’re determined to put a Black person on the coin from DC, why not Benjamin Banneker ?

“In a money-saving move, the new quarters will be aluminum foil-covered cardboard. Those who have seen prototypes claim they look real from beyond 10 feet. If moisture becomes a problem, the cardboard will be waterproofed.”

PE obama has indicated that his first action as president will be to commission designs for the other 57 states.
