COLUMN: The faces on our money

Does Andrew Jackson deserve to be on the twenty dollar bill? He was a slave owner and killed countless Native Americans in his quest for Manifest Destiny.  That being said, the man was so instrumental in forging our modern conception of democracy that his name is now an adjective for it: Jacksonian democracy. Perhaps the more appropriate question is whether or not he should be stripped of this placement today.  The removal of past honors is a complex subject.  When statues of dictators are felled in foreign countries, nearly all Americans celebrate alongside the newly liberated.  However, when the glorification of controversial figures in America is brought up for review, the issue is much less two dimensional.
