Trail of Tears [Type the document subtitle] 5/12/2014 Cristal Perez Administrator


One day Christina Perry and I were minding our own business. We were wondering how the past was so we decided to go to the public library to talk to Tyga. He was looking for the history books that mentioned all the past. Christina and I decided to learn about the� Trail of Tears�. We thought that would be an interesting topic to learn about. Christina and I traveled through time by reading and day dreaming about the day when the Trail of Tears happened. Christina told me that the Trail of Tears was a act about the Native Americans walking in the cold weather in a bad condition many Indians had died, disease and starvation. The Americans had to travel from Georgia to Oklahoma.

European Exploration The first place were the time machine left us was in Georgia. And on the same day that the Americans had to move out. We were wondering around to see what was happening. There was allot of drama going on like all the Americans were mad and running away from Andrew Jackson. Andrew Jackson had discovered gold on Indian land. He wanted to have all the riches to himself. All of the Americans were suffering cause they had to leave their homes and all their belongings. They had to take wagons that carried some of their belongings and it carried their family. Some families had to walk all the way to from Georgia to Oklahoma in the cold, dry weather. Most of the Americans had survived the weather but most had died by getting diseases or died by starvation. Christina and I were wondering why didn’t the Americans fight back. So we asked a nice young woman that was holding her young child in her arms. I asked why didn’t they fight back so they could keep their land, she told us that if they fight back that they would of gotten killed or shot.
