But on the back 

I guess .. I don't know if I should fume or be happy

King Center officials say they are proud and humbled that Martin Luther King Jr.?s photo has been chosen to be on the back of the new $5 bill.

The U.S. Treasury announced changes to the $20, $10 and $5 bills last week.

The new $5 bill will keep President Abraham Lincoln?s picture on the front, but the back will now highlight historic events at the Lincoln Memorial, featuring images of renowned opera singer Marian Anderson, first lady Eleanor Roosevelt and Martin Luther King Jr.

"He's a hero to everyone," said Kristie Cain Raymer with the National Center for Civil and Human Rights.

?Juxtaposing Dr. King's image and other iconic voices of freedom on one side with President Abraham Lincoln on the other poignantly symbolizes the connection between the promise of a nation, the fulfillment of that promise and the never-ending generational struggle to reach our promise,? Dr. Bernice King said in a statement Tuesday.

This is fine. It's more than what we've ever dreamed of so...I'm all for it. At some point, President Obama needs to be on a coin or something but that'll be no time soon.
