∙ 11y agoThe 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)
