I'm sure everyone here is aware of the heart breaking news. The wonderful war hero Andrew Jackson, has passed on, and while everyone here has great things to say about him, I'm sure, we the Native Americans, have the most praise for his accomplished life.

I plan to research the program of Indian wars and removal in the Southwest led by Union officer James H. Carleton for relocation to the reservation of Bosque Redondo. Bosque Redondo was overseen by Carleton until 1868, and was intended to be a coda to this program. Bosque Redondo was filled by Native Americans forced to relocate under threat from Union troops. My intent is to explore Carleton’s leadership in regards to carrying out this program against the Navajo and Mescalero Apache. Questions…
