Please help me answer these History questions. (THIS IS NOT OPTIONAL) (This is due by 6:00 PM) 1. Do you think Emerson thanks that Indian removal is just or unjust? Cite evidence from the document to support your claim.

2. Based on the painting of the “Cherokee Nation”, how would you describe it’s journey along the Trail of Tears? What stands out to you?

(I REPEAT THIS IS NOT OPTIONAL AND DON’T JUST SAY SOMETHING RANDOM)

1.Do you think Emerson thanks that Indian removal is just or unjust?

Emerson writes in his third letter addressing President Van Buren stating that the removal of the Cherokee Nation would be an unjust and tragic act. Emerson believed that the President has a commitment to protect every inhabitant of the US. Emerson states that Van Buren will bring shame on the office of the Presidency and the entire country. Emerson affirmed that the Indian removal is “fraud and robbery”.

2.How would you describe its journey along the trail of tears.

The Cherokee people called this journey the "Trail of Tears," because of its devastating effects. The migrants faced hunger, disease, and exhaustion on the forced march. Over 4,000 out of 15,000 of the Cherokees died. ... It commemorates the suffering of the Cherokee people under forced removal.
