By "us" I take it you mean America and Americans. The Trail of Tears set the tone for Indian Policy that continues to this day. Indians are murdered, raped, starved to death, killed by exposure, Raped, have their children taken from them, have their property stolen, have their lands taken, and are refused any recourse of action. They also are not allowed to own property without permission, they cannot drive in the USA, they cannot access banks, utilities, or any other thing that requires Social Security numbers. And any action of their governments are ignored unless that government gets permission from the USA to take that action. Those members of government that act without that permission are called "Domestic Terrorists" and thrown in jail for life, or murdered. IE: It is how the property rights to all of the United States, was won.

∙ 13y agoBefore the Trail of Tears the tribes involved were under the mistaken impression that the United States, and its people, were honest and just people. The actions taken by the USA and its citizens taught us that we were wrong, and the USA and its people are dishonest, untrustworthy, and by our terms less than human.
