Indian Removal Act By: Ashvath Gondesi and Coah Powell

Current Living Conditions Out of the country’s 5.2 million Native Americans, about 22% of them live on tribal lands. The scarcity of jobs and the lack of economic opportunity means that depending on the reservation, four to eight out of ten adults on reservations do not have jobs. There are 90,000 homeless or under housed Indian families. Also, there is 30% of Indian housing that is overcrowded and less than 50% of its connected to a public sewer. Almost 55% of Indians rely on the Indian Health Service for their medical care, but the Indian Health Care Improvement Act only meets 60% of their health needs.

Justified or Not In 1837, Andrew Jackson removed 46,000 Native Americans from their land east of the Mississippi. The Indian Removal was justified because Andrew Jackson said that the Act was to save the Indians because it would resettle them in an area that they could govern themselves in peace and live their own life. Congress and Andrew Jackson thought it would be fair for Americans and Indians equally. Also, the nation would be stronger and advance in population.

Notes The Indian Removal Act was passed by president Andrew Jackson in 1830 Indian Removal Act was passed to take away land from the Natives Andrew Jackson said he would take land from Natives and make the nation stronger and advance in population For Americans back then, they thought Natives were aliens that took up land The Indians journey west became known as the Trail of Tears In 1837, Andrew Jackson removed 46,000 Native Americans from their land east of the Mississippi President Jackson said that the Indian Removal Act would save Indians because it would resettle them in an area that they could govern themselves in peace and live their own life Some Americans disliked the act and rebelled
