French Colonial Policy
I believe the legislation you are referring to is the Indian Removal Act, and Andrew Jackson's enforcement of this causing the Trail of Tears.
The Native Americans knew that they were about to be kicked out with Jackson's mindset of putting pioneers and settlers into the Native American land.

Thomas Jackson, also known as Stonewall Jackson, is not known to have had a policy toward Native Americans. Andrew Jackson, a generation earlier, and no relation to Stonewall, carried out a policy similar to a Russian progrom to force Native Americans across the Mississippi to a separate territory. This became known as the Trail of Tears.

Andrew Marshall - foreign policy strategist - was born in 1921.
Native American tribes that lived east of the Mississippi River were the people most hurt by Andrew Jacksonâ??s Indian Removal Policy. These people did not know where they could go, how to survive on foreign lands, or who they could trust.

I am not sure what you mean by his perception. He was fully responsible for the treatment of Native Americans. He was the president and made it a policy to remove tribes to reservations.
Andrew Jackson's actions and policies demonstrated racism throughout his presidency. He was a vocal supporter of slavery and implemented policies such as the Indian Removal Act, which forcibly displaced Native American tribes from their ancestral lands, resulting in the tragic Trail of Tears. He also held prejudiced views towards indigenous peoples and defended white supremacy. These actions highlight his racist beliefs and actions.
No, Andrew Jackson's Indian Removal policy was not motivated by humanitarian impulses. It was primarily driven by his desire to remove Native American tribes from their ancestral lands in order to open up those lands for white settlement and economic gain. This policy eventually led to the forced relocation of thousands of Native Americans and resulted in the tragic Trail of Tears.
