What president was in office during the trial of tears?
barack obama
Who were you on the trial of tears?
The Trail of Tears was the forced removal of several different Native American tribes. The tribes on the Trail of Tears included the Choctaws, Muskogee, Creek, Chickasaws, Cherokees, and Seminoles.
How are the Trail of Tears and the long walk the same and how are they different.?
The trial of tears is from tribes from florida like the Seminole and the other of the 5 civilized tribes & the long walk is from the navajo
What was the Trail of Tears and why did it happen?
there is no way to tell for sure if there is one event that really started the removal of the Indians. Greed, Western Expansion, and feeling superior to the "savages" caused this and most of the persecution of the Native American people. The Cherokee people tried very hard to become what the dominant culture wanted. They owned land, farmed, and even owned slaves. They had a written language and published a newspaper in that language. They were still driven out. Many of their persecutors moved into the farms and homes they left behind. The white man's greed is what caused the Trail of Tears to occur. They wanted more land and forced the Indians to move out of the land they wanted. The Indian Problem, specifically the forced-draft resettlement ( accompanied by US Army troops) of the Cherokee tribe, eventually to wide tracts in among other places, oOklahoma. what was lightly called the Cherokee strip by the White man- and the epic land rush with cowhands and chuck-wagons ( a stamp and cover was done on this theme) was called by the uprooted Native Americans, the Trail or Tears. of course, this phrase can be applied to any tragic situation- such as the child-abuse epidemic among churchmen.
What were some difficulties for the travelers during the trial of tears?
This was a brutal event for Native Americans. They were walked in the dead of winter from Georgia to Oklahoma. Men, women, children, sick, old, and babies were forced to leave their ancestral lands. They died from disease, injuries, and starvation. There is a reason it is called Trail of Tears.
