Why and how were the native Americans westward?
Answers
Native Americans lived in the lands of America before settlers came to live. Then settlers came in and settled. Their policies toward Native Americans was aggressive because they thought Native Americans would revolt. President Andrew Jackson signed a law called the Indian Removal Act on May 28, 1830. The act authorized the Native Americans to leave this land for the Americans could settle there. The Indian Removal Act affects us today because it created a racial situation with Native Americans treated as second class citizens or worse. The civil rights of Native Americans were so trampled on that they still have not not recovered.
