Explain the causes and effects of the Indian Removal Act and the Trail of Tears.

History
1 answer:
Gennadij [26K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Cause: There was also some argument that the Native Americans may raid nearby plantations, causing many of the farmers to protest their presence. Eventually, president Andrew Jackson, decided to pass the Indian removal acts in 1830, which allowed him to move the Indians west. Since Andrew Jackson had grown up on a plantation where Indian raids were common, he had a negative view of them, saying that "they are inferior to whites". The president had very little problem with sending them away, and in 1838 put the trail of tears into action.

Effect: One major effect is that the Native American population severely decreased. While on the Trail of Tears, many Native Americans endured hypothermia, starvation, and sickness. More than 4,000 natives died due to these conditions, leaving the Native American population hanging by a thread. The other major effect is that since there was only a handful of Indians that survived the horrible journey, the culture quickly became, and still is today, on the verge of extinction.

In your opinion, do you believe that Senator McCarthy took it too far when accusing these people of being connected to communism
Sauron [17]

Answer: Many of the communists rooted out by McCarthy and his allies were spies or had ties to Russia. Alger Hiss is one of these spies, but was convicted rather for perjuring himself on this charge. I believe he (McCarthy) was right in doing what he did, as rather than allowing such people to take root in our government, he fought back against them.
