The Trail of Tears refers to the forced relocation of Native American nations, particularly the Cherokee, from their ancestral lands in the southeastern United States to designated Indian Territory west of the Mississippi River during the 1830s. This tragic event, driven by the Indian Removal Act of 1830, resulted in the suffering and death of thousands due to harsh conditions, disease, and starvation. The term symbolizes the broader suffering and injustice faced by Indigenous peoples in the U.S. during this period. It remains a significant historical example of the impact of U.S. policies on Native American communities.
