Jackson believed that the only solution was to move the Native Americans from there lands to areas farther West.
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.
There were several reasons why Andrew Jackson removed Native Americans from Georgia. One reason was the desire for more land for white settlers, as Jackson believed that Native Americans were obstacles to westward expansion. Additionally, Jackson held prejudiced views towards Native Americans and believed that they were culturally inferior. Finally, Jackson was influenced by the Indian Removal Act of 1830, which authorized the removal of Native Americans from their ancestral lands.
false
To put it bluntly Jackson felt that the only good Indian was a dead one. He built his reputation on killing native Americans and there were many who agreed with him. The US policy towards the Native Americans was one of discrimination and it was apartheid at it's very worse. The Indian Removable Act moved native people off of ancestral lands so settlers could take the land or the railroad go through. Moving people to reservations meant that they were unable hunt, and unable to live within reasonable means. It was death and Jackson was intolerant in his attitude to Native Americans.
he believed that the government had the power to tell native Americans where they could live
Andrew Jackson is not widely regarded as the "great father of the Indians." In fact, Jackson's policies towards Native Americans were highly controversial and detrimental. He signed the Indian Removal Act, which resulted in the forced relocation of Native American tribes and the Trail of Tears, causing immense suffering and loss of life. Jackson's actions reflected a disregard for Native American rights and sovereignty.
