Removal, Reparation, Repatriation, and Reconciliation

The Indian Removal Act of 1830 allowed the U.S. government to negotiate treaties with Native American tribes located east of the Mississippi River. While some tribes voluntarily exchanged their lands for territory in the west, others were forcibly removed. This brutal relocation disrupted the cultures of tribes such as the Cherokee, Creek, and Seminole nations, and resulted in a significant loss of life.  RSVP is required!
