The 19th century saw the forced march of the Cherokee Tribe from the eastern part of the US to what is now Oklahoma. Despite court rulings, US President Andrew Jackson ignored them. This proud Native Tribe suffered greatly due to disease, starvation, violence and the long march. It was cruel and unjustified.
