what happened to some native americans during Jackson's presidency?
They were forced to leave their homeland and move westward
they allied themselves with slaves to seek equal protection under the law
They were given large land grants on their native soil
they filed a large number of lawsuits to protect their rights
The correct answer is: They were forced to leave their homeland and move westward.
During Andrew Jackson's presidency, the policy of Indian Removal was enforced, which led to the forced relocation of numerous Native American tribes from their ancestral lands in the southeastern United States. This policy culminated in the Indian Removal Act of 1830, resulting in the infamous Trail of Tears, where thousands of Native Americans, primarily from the Cherokee Nation, were forcibly removed from their homes and forced to march westward to designated Indian Territory, which is present-day Oklahoma. This relocation resulted in the deaths of thousands of Native Americans due to harsh conditions and disease.
