both of my great great great great great grandfather and grandmother died back in 1838 thanks to Andrew Jackson he told my cherokee people out of North Carolina and i’m really glad both of my 5x great grandfather sacrifice his life for me to stay in my beloved state of North Carolina. It makes me cry thinking about him and his wife even i never had a chance to meet them i would thank my 5x great grandfather for his life for me to stay in North Carolina.
My great grandfather lost his parents on the Trail. He arrived in Fort Smith Arkansas an orphan at the age of 13. I really appreciate the actors in this movie. Also, I realize that the people that played the "bad guys," in the movie help to tell this story that needs telling.
It was heartbreaking to watch and listen to this HISTORY. Ancestors on both sides of my family are Cherokee and church friends were Cherokee (Mom & 3 kids from a Canadian reservation who came to America and were members of our church, then returned to the reservation after she lost both her sons).
I came across the story of trail of Tears by accident. I never heard of this story before and it wasn't in my history books or my children or my grandchildren either. My granddaughter is part Menominee so I decided to read it. I never felt so sick to my stomach and never cried so hard I'm my 66 years. I would like to find answers as to why this part of history was omitted from us. I will find out and when I do I will po
If you haven’t been to the Cherokee Nation Museum in Tahlequah yet I recommend it. One of the locations the trail of tears ended and I’m telling you.. it will absolutely hit you hard.
People wonder why this country has so many problems to this day. You cannot do everything our government has done to people and not feel the aftermath.
Andrew Jackson was a war criminal in every sense of the word yet he was elected president twice. You can't sugar coat that American settlement and expansion required ethnic cleansing and genocide.
2000 deaths really your way off by thousands , remember there were more than one trail of tears there were many forced to leave north to south from the east coast..
make sure all knows the truth the original native American Indians were black and the ones you see today are nothing more the Korean mixed with white which are $5 Indians
My father once told me that had those three tribes united, there would not be the United States that we see today. The Cherokee were master blacksmiths and farmers, amongst other things , the Comanche were many and fierce warriors, and the Apache were the best guerrilla warfare fighters that have ever lived. No, they would have driven them back and they would have convinced the rest of the tribes to join them. Seeing how the US government treated every single tribe, the plains tribes of the north would have ran to join them! These corrupt, lying, cheating politicians have destroyed anything that was good about this country. The country is gone, most people just have not realized it yet, but they will. Especially when China and Russia come.
You can tell the racism during colonialism then and now , 1450 2024 in all colonised countrys , bless all and may we find love in this future we are all same 🌍🕊🦋❤💀❤🦋🕊🌍
Why did they do andrew Jackson with an English accent his ancestry is irish, also the native Indians were on the British side in the war of independence because Britain had a deal with the indians long before that they would not be disturbed from their land after the war of independence many native indians came to Britain in wild west shows and stayed.
@@irsdrillteamirsperformance8568 so the American Indians originated in Africa is what you are saying? The Indians were brought over from Africa on slave ships? Why do they call the American Indians red skins? And who looks stupid? You called my your friend but I am not your friend. Don’t want to be your friend. Glad I don’t know you. I try to stay away from ignorance.
do shut up... a white person is literally sitting here telling you a story where the US government and white people were the villains. you think a different race is going to make them more objective?

Thank you for making this movie available. I'm a Cherokee and my ancestors walked the trail of tears it's my heritage.
I'm terribly sorry that your family had to go through this
Me too!

The film was required viewing at the local college in Lorain, OH. Cannot help but shed tears and feel deep sorrow about the HISTORY of AMERICANS...

I have been there many time and if you have not seen the Passion Play Unto These Hills, I recommend go see it.
They don't supply tissues either...take a couple of hankies with you.

I think judgement Is coming for this country, and i think It will happen In my life time...and Is close to almost the end...
America’s foundation is built on innocent blood. It won’t always be so prosperous.
thank you for divine connection to unlearn and then relearn my history of Lineage
The more I learn about this, the more heartbroken I am 😢
😭
I agree nobody deserves this treatment. What happened here could be equal to what the Nazis did to the Jewish people in World War 2. It hurts my soul.
The more i learn about the caucasian history full stop the more angry, bitter and depressed i become
you should feel even more sorry for all the slaves the cherokee owned
Sad this is what are country is built on
Andrew Jackson is hell walking is his trail of tears with the confederated soilders and who followed there ways..
Andrew Jackson was a Yankee , .
Andrew Jackson is the father of the Democrat Party.
Andrew Jackson was a war criminal in every sense of the word yet he was elected president twice. You can't sugar coat that American settlement and expansion required ethnic cleansing and genocide.
Finding very interesting my great grand mother was 100% Cherokee lived in Kentucky
My great grandmother was in Georgia
NOT POSSIBLE
Unless you’re black
@@irsdrillteamirsperformance8568 here you agin with that myth that has been debunked many times over.
@@durondadavis9349 My great grandmother was in Georgia too, she was a full blood Cherokee.
thank you elders
thank you ancestors
wow the video skips when saying how many native americans died. for all who want to know....at least 2,000
mr.oscer its jace thanks for the answer
2000 deaths really your way off by thousands , remember there were more than one trail of tears there were many forced to leave north to south from the east coast..
make sure all knows the truth the original native American Indians were black and the ones you see today are nothing more the Korean mixed with white which are $5 Indians
More like 10,000
3'000 Cherokees died on thet trail.
Honor my sweet family. First Nation's Cherokee Comanche Apache

@@lynncarlson2463 You must read the bible some, Its going to get bad real bad ,I think before I'm gone..
This story is not accurate. Tallapoosa Ga. Was a ceremonial town for Cherokee.
You can tell the racism during colonialism then and now ,
1450 2024 in all colonised countrys , bless all and may we find love in this future we are all same

...how convenient when the narrator gave # of estimated deaths...no audio ... Govt sucks
Government will reap what they sow

I hope the United snakes of America ready for the epic rematch to come 🤭🤫😉
Indeed
And the blacks think they are the only ones that were mistreated.
And it will come!

No different than HITLER!!

This is a never ending story. The US allows and encourages Israel to pursue the same sort of racist genocide against the Palestinean people.

SHAME ON YOU!!! The Sound Is Terrible!!!!! Wake Up!!!
Presentations about Native Americans should be given by Native Americans, not white men for more accurate information without filter.
do shut up... a white person is literally sitting here telling you a story where the US government and white people were the villains. you think a different race is going to make them more objective?
don't forget about all the slaves the cherokee owned and how they fought for the south
The Cherokee were not the only tribe removed.
colonialism, genocide is just evil..f up
This is all lies
exactly like covid 19
