INDIAN REMOVAL Context: President Andrew Jackson had become famous as an Indian fighter. With public support, he reversed the government’s pledge to respect Indian land. The result was the brutal removal of the southeastern peoples to empty lands in the West. Reminder: Phases of Indian Policy: Phase 1: Late 1700’s
Phase 2: After War of 1812
Phase 3: Early 1820’s
Land Acquisition & Assimilation
Stabilize Relations
Voluntary Removal
PHASE 4: INDIAN REMOVAL ACT, 1830 Indian Removal Act Law passed by Congress authorizing Forced Removal of Native Americans to designated Indian Territory (present-day Oklahoma).
THE CHEROKEE STORY… (Remember) Phase 2:
Assimilation
Many Cherokee agreed to adopt white American culture in order to keep their remaining lands:
Then…
• Invited Christian Missionaries to set up schools to teach Cherokee children to read/write;
• Americans moved into Cherokee lands designated in treaties;
• Modeled their tribal government after the US Constitution; • Created a writing system for their native language.
• Gold discovered on Cherokee lands in Georgia;
• Georgia state leaders prepared to remove Cherokee.
In response, the Cherokee tribe… • Sued Georgia state government; • Claimed they were an independent nation, so Georgia’s state gov’t had no legal power over their lands. Supreme Court Ruling:
Worcester v. Georgia (1832) • Agreed with the Cherokee; • Ruled Fed Gov’t (not States!) had authority over tribes through treaties. • Treaties should be upheld!
Reaction to the Court Ruling: • Georgia ignored the Court’s ruling; • Jackson took no action to carry out the Supreme Court’s ruling; • No protest from most members of Congress nor American citizens.
THE TRAIL OF TEARS (1838) • US troops remove 18,000 Cherokee to Indian Territory; • 800 mile, forced march • Almost ¼ died on the Trail of Tears (disease, hunger, and harsh weather)
