Thesis,
The main focus I have of my project is the Cherokee. I will take the Indian side and try to explain that the Americans were unfair, unjust, and downright savage when they pursued the Trail of Tears, which resulted in the deaths and mistreatment of thousands of Indians. Treaties were broken, and Andrew Jackson mercilessly moved the Indians as far as he could and as quickly as he could. The Trail of Tears marked a turning point in American History. This event forever changed how Native Americans would be treated and be able to live in the United States forever.
Connection to Theme,
My connection to theme is that I'm Cherokee. My ancestors traveled the Trail of Tears and I wanted to find out more about it. My birth family did not want me to know that I'm Cherokee but I know I am. That is the reason I did this topic because I wanted to learn more about my ancestors. I was told by my grandma that I'm Cherokee.
