This was put in action by Andrew Jackson, the president at the time. The Indian Removal Act is where Andrew Jackson would negotiate land removal treaties with Native Americans (Indians). They could either agree or disagree to the removal treaty. If they disagreed, they would have to 'give up' being Indian and live life like an American, and if they agreed then they would have to move west to a place Andrew Jackson called Indian Territory which was located across the Mississippi river and near Oklahoma, thousands of miles away. Andrew Jackson noticed that no matter how many treaties he made, the Indians would still be in the way, so he started to send soldiers over to kill some of them. The Era of Good Feelings ended in 1825, but the Indian Removal Process continued until 1840.]]> 2018-03-01 20:20:21 UTC https://padlet.com/kimberlyc2022/balth4eosgif/wish/237169967 kimberlyc2022 https://padlet.com/kimberlyc2022/balth4eosgif/wish/237177586 The Indian Removal Act led to something called the Trail of Tears. Andrew Jackson went out of office in June 8, 1845, making the next president Martin Van Buren. President Martin Van Buren sent General Winfield Scott and 7,000 soldiers to speed up and accompany the Indians that were part of the Indian Removal process. Some of the Indians that were dying and got sick would be pushed to the back of the trail, leaving them to die. It is said that there was a bunch of dead people on both sides of the trail to Oklahoma. 3,500 of the 15,000 Creeks who set out for Oklahoma did not survive the trip, and an estimate of 5,000 Cherokee's died along the way.]]> 2018-03-01 20:37:35 UTC https://padlet.com/kimberlyc2022/balth4eosgif/wish/237177586 kimberlyc2022 https://padlet.com/kimberlyc2022/balth4eosgif/wish/237181964 http://www.history.com/topics/native-american-history/trail-of-tears]]> 2018-03-01 20:46:12 UTC https://padlet.com/kimberlyc2022/balth4eosgif/wish/237181964
