The Removal of the Cherokee

The tragedy of the Cherokee countries bothered the legacy of President Andrew Jackson. Events following the implementation of Indian policies are certainly terrible and will continually raise ethical questions for all generations. Ancient tribes of Native Americans were forced to leave their ancestral home to increase the aggressive expansion of white settlers in the early days of the United States. The most remarkable elimination was after the 1830 Indian exile ban. The Cherokee journey is called "Tear Mark", the other four civilized tribes, Chicasso, Choctaw, Creek, Seminole were forced to migrate to the west of the Mississippi River.

Cherokee's official education stalled during the transfer to the Oklahoma Territory in 1838. But Cherokee was very interested in the children 's education, and when they settled, they opened a school in Taleco, Oklahoma. They founded a female seminary. Currently, there are about 1,300 students of K - 12. These schools are accredited by BIA, North Carolina State, Southern College and the School Association. In 1989, Cherokee High School received the Cherokee Award. It is commended from about 200 schools in the United States. The school will provide and maintain our proud, sacred Indian heritage

There was a fierce argument about whether the Cherokee Indians should not be removed from the lands they live in. The general white consensus is to seek layoff, Cherokee is opposed to dismissals, but people who oppose their group's decision are on both sides. The Cherokee Indians have moved from their hometowns because they can not live alone in their lifestyle.

In 1830, the Congress passed the "India Exile Bill" which was the stage for the compulsory expulsion of Cherokee and infamous people. In 1835, a small unauthorized group of about 100 Cherokee leaders (called Treaty Party) returned all Oklahoma Cherokee territory to the Oklahoma and signed the new Echota Treaty (Georgia) landed in the northeast . Cherokee Chief John Ross petitioned the Senate to refuse ratification of the illegal treaty by gathering over 15,000 signatures representing almost the entire Cherokee country. However, the Senate approved the treaty in a single vote in 1836. With this treaty, the Cherokee left the mountain house for two years and was able to enter the state of Oklahoma.
