Answer:
B. Forced removal of the Cherokee from Georgia
Explanation:
This paraphrased excerpt is from President Andrew Jackson's Message to Congress on The Indian Removal Act that the Congress had approved.
Under this Act, Jackson was authorized to grant unsettled lands west of the Mississippi River to Indian tribes, consisting mainly of the Cherokee, in exchange for their ancestral homelands located in Georgia. In reality, Jackson enforced this act not as a form of negotiation with the tribes, but as a violent removal of the tribes, especially of the Cherokee that refused to leave from Georgia to Western Lands.
In the speech, the President is referring to that act and the forced removal of the Cherokee from Georgia and uses those word in order to justify the government's actions. Jackson sees the government's policies as liberal, generous and kind because the removal was in the Indians' best interests: it would save them from extinction and it would free them from the power of the States.
