    In a press release, the Mint said it would be adding Wilma Mankiller, the first woman elected to be Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation; Adelina Otero-Warren, a leader in the U.S. suffrage movement in New Mexico; and Anna May Wong, the first Chinese-American Hollywood film star.

    Other women who will be honored on the quarters include renowned poet and author Maya Angelou, who recited a poem at former President Clinton's inauguration, as well as Sally Ride, the first American woman in space.

    "Courageous women have made countless contributions throughout our great Nation's history," said Mint Director David J. Ryder. "The American Women Quarters Program is a unique opportunity to honor a broad and diverse group of women whose achievements, triumphs, and legacies reflect the strength and resilience of our Nation. We look forward to sharing their stories."
    “If we have to have a choice between being dead and pitied, and being alive with a bad image, we’d rather be alive and have the bad image.”

    Judge Juan M. Merchan wrote that Trump “appears to take the position that his situation and this case are unique and that the pre-trial publicity will never subside. However, this view does not align with reality.”
