Trail of Tears

the Indians were forced to move west, due to the Indian removal act. Andrew Jackson was on the side that wanted them out, so he sent General Winfield Scott and 7000 troops along with him to remove the Indians. it was very cold and many died from disease or from the weather. it was a very difficult walk.

Also when the Indians where forced to move, they were moved with no notification and were not allowed to collect belongings, and were always held at gunpoint. The commander of the militia encouraged soldiers to help the Indians and give special care to the weak and sick, but regardless of his efforts the Indians were brutally abused by the soldiers and over 4000 Indians died because of sickness, cold, and abuse.

In 1838, the gov't ordered the forceed removal of Cherokee from their homes to be relocated in what is now today Oklahoma. About 2,000 Cherokee died in camps waiting to be moved while another 2,000more died of starvation, disease, and exposure on the journey. Few apposed the hars treatment. The Trail of Tears showed how cold and heartless the gov't could be to get what it wants and how much the citizens would let things like this slide.

or Forced migration.

The Native Americans were driven barefoot through rain, snow and other harsh weather conditions. They were NOT allowed to gather much of their possessions, if they were allowed any, before the FORCED march.

Also they were brutally abused by the militia soldiers though the commander of the army ordered them to help the weak & sick (at least he did something right), but of course none of them listened nor helped the Indians. They call it the trail of tears because of how many Indians died. (over 4000) tell us why it is called that

some traditions of the powhatan indian tribe are christmas, easter, thanksgiving, veterans day

The Trail of Tears were a set of stockades (open prisons), Weigh Stations, Forts, and trails that ranged from 200 to 900 miles long starting in the south eastern United States and ending in the current day state of Oklahoma. The forced march of native Americans began in 1831 and ended sometime in 1839.

All weather conditions were present during the Trail of Tears, including at least two notably 'coldest winters' ever experienced (quoted from first hand reports).

The US Army, Militia and Volunteers forced native Americans to walk, through all weather conditions along these routes, holding them in stockades at different points. Documented accounts exist that: People were murdered (shot for fun or at the orders of commanders), Raped, tortured, drowned, intentionally exposed to diseases, starved, and had all property taken at the will of the taker without recourse. (Just imagine the death camps of Nazi Germany, but without as many photo opportunities).

For the various tribes involved, the Trail lasted from 1831 to 1838. The Cherokees were the last tribe moved, after they won the Supreme Court case Cherokee Nation vs. the US. President Andrew Jackson moved them contrary to orders from the court.

Indians

Around 17,000 Cherokee walked the trail of tears. The trail was from Georgia to Oklahoma. Many of the Cherokee that marched did not make it. They were left in the dirt where they fell from exhaustion. By the way don't forget to thank Andrew Jackson the next time you hold a $20 bill.

Samuel Cloud was a member of the Cherokee Nation who turned nine years of age while making that historic journey. His memoir is a part of that historical record.

After a 2200 mile journey the trail of tears ended in Oklahoma.

Different claims were made by the US at different times for the removal of the natives. In general it was 'for the benefit of the natives that they be removed' - although it was admitted that it was the land and the gold found on the lands that was the real reason (not to mention that the states had already sold the lands to white settlers).

The Cherokee had already "refused" to move but they were forcefully moved to Oklahoma. Jackson was already out of presidency but he is held responsible for starting the further intentions for this trail of tears.

If you mean literally, it ends when you stop sorrowing, if ultimately, only in a better place called heaven, the Redeemer's place He went to prepare.

I see them listed from $150 to $300+. Depends on condition as to top-end price.

Cherokee leaders signed away the rights of members of their tribes

Nothing. The American soldiers did not give them any time to gather their belongings, and after the Indians were out of their houses, the soldiers looted the houses.

They wore rags and striped suits. They also wore clothes that would be very thin and long. These would be pieces of cotton woven intoclothing. And sometimes no clothes

The Tears ended in 2006.
