Newman Portal Adds Black Women on Money

Harcourt Fuller, Associate Professor of History at Georgia State University, has produced a short film, Black Women on Money, which is now posted on Newman Portal. The short features Black women on American money, including Maya Angelou, Bessie Coleman, and Harriet Tubman. Fuller includes commentary from Ernestine "Tina" Martin, 3x-great grandniece of Tubman, as well as discussion of portraits of Black women on world paper money. Harcourt Fuller further covers his Black Money Exhibit. This work was produced in part with support from the Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society, via a 2024 Newman Grant for numismatic research.

Be sure to watch the video - it's nicely done. The J.S.G. Boggs Harriet Tubman note makes a cameo appearance. She has yet to appear on an actual U.S. currency note, nor have we yet honored the First Female President, another of Boggsie's fanciful creations. -Editor
