None of the previous uses were anything but a white woman. Should the next one be a trans mexican man?

I guess that's the question, we know this a pc motivated gesture. However, when it gets to a point where your turning lady liberty into a black woman with nappy hair, what argument can we possibly make saying that the U.S. mint can't turn her into a trans mexican man?
I agree its ridiculous, but what can be done? And should anything be done on the basis of violating the principle of violating free speech?

It's a non-issue.
Who gives a fuck?

I find it weird that all of these established characters and symbols are being turned into black people instead of making up new ones.
Also, black Lady liberty is so bland in her design. I'd rather get a coin with something unique like a baby anteater on it if I am expected to pay the premium for having a "special" coin. It's a good call releasing it in April, though. Black people who would normally be too poor to get this coin can buy it with their earned income credit. 💸 I'm black myself, but I'll be spending mine on white people's chocolate. 💰

On one hand it's all a PC nonsense.On other hand I don't care.I still lean towards dislike of the idea of changing Iconic images to suit current PC culture.

Perhaps a trans-sexual Chinese Muslim on the new $3 bill?

It doesn't make a difference to me. Nobody is getting hurt. Collectors probably love it.
