Reply to Volunteers deliver thousands of free Hanukkah meals to Holocaust survivors in New York City by AmethystOrator
According to the article, there are 15,000 - 20,000 holocaust survivors in NYC alone. According to a January 2020 article I found online: https://www.economist.com/graphic-detail/2020/01/25/archivists-are-racing-to-identify-every-jewish-holocaust-victim, (sorry, I don’t know how to do this the “right” way), there were 400,000 survivors at that time. My mind is blown that bodies and minds can go through what they went through, and so many still be alive ~80 years later.

Reply to comment by happywartime in Anna May Wong will become the first Asian American to be on U.S. currency by _notsuoh_
The top comment on the thread has a whole list of people supposedly slated to end up on US currency, and I was confused that Tubman wasn’t on it, as they’ve been talking for years about putting her face on US currency. It is nothing against this list of people (or Anna May Wong), but I don’t think she should be stepped over or forgotten. It’s great all these people will (hopefully) end up on currency.

This is the comment I was looking for! Nothing against the others, but thought she was supposed to be on deck??
