The Cherokee Nation also created a constitution that was similar to the Constitution of the United…

The removal was very unjustified because we were unfair and made a lot of people die, we did.This is why the Indian removal act was unjustified and how America can be towards others. Imagine how it would feel to lose your home and have to walk about 1,000 miles to get to your new home.“The Cherokees lost approximately one-fourth of their people to disease, malnourishment, and hardship.”This is only one hardship they faced.√The removal was unjustified because the native Americans owned the land…

became known as Custer’s Last Stand and it spelled the victory for the Indian Chiefs Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse. Unfortunately this victory was short-lived, most of the Indians who survived this battle were later forced to surrender to the U.S. Army and were restrained on a reservation without access to their weapons and horses. They then became dependent on the Government for food and shelter. Shortly after this dependency was created George Manypenny commenced the Sioux with a new treaty…

If you had been forced away from your family, community, and culture (as Native children were until the mid-1980s) how might you have turned out differently? What would you have missed learning without your personal cultural influences? The Indian Removal Act was signed into law by President Andrew Jackson on May 28, 1830 to permit the elimination of Indian tribes to federal territory west of the Mississippi River.
