Question

What was the Indian Removal Act of 1830?

Answer 1

The Indian removal act was when john Adams went out to the west and removed all the Indians from their homes.

Answer 2

The Indian Removal Act (1830) was a federal Act that authorized President Andrew Jackson to negotiate with Native American tribes for their removal from their ancestral homelands in the Southern states to the territory west of the Mississippi River.

In reality, however, the act was not a form of negotiation with Native Americans: the tribes were forced to relocate in a new territory, and violence was used when they refused to move.
