Welcome to the Dark History podcast. Today, we are going to talk about the Trail of Tears. Now, this is a heavy one, but it’s a necessary one. Over two decades, the U.S. Government stole Native land and relocated about 88,000 people. About 17,000 died along the way. But this is also a story of pride and resistance, with many of these tribes surviving to tell the story today.
I appreciate you for coming by, and tune in next week for more dark history.
You can find Dark History podcast on Apple, Spotify, wherever you listen to your podcasts, and every Thursday here on my KZfaq for the visual side of things.

I am from CT and grew up seeing how the casinos there thrived (no idea how the actual tribes were doing though) but then I went S Dakota to volunteer on the Oglala Lakota's res Pine Ridge and saw the truth. I knew how bad it had been, even read a lot of Bury My Heart on Wounded Knee but stopped because i was in tears every day on my lunch breakat work. And i worked retail so then had to go out on the sales floor and at least pretend to be chipper. Anyways, I wasn't expecting things to continue to be happening. I was left mentally screaming, haven't we learned from out past? Aren't we supposed to know better, and do better?!? Apparently not. Or at least not enough people. Myself included, because what have I done since then? Donated a little to Red Cloud school, but I know that was a temporary bandaid and not a solution. Sorry. I ment to say just a sentence or two but my fingers just kept on going...

The horrors started from the first settlements. My Mayflower ancestors hadn’t even landed at Plymouth (as they called it) when they stole winter corn stores from the Massasoit. The second generation would be involved in selling POWs from King Phillip’s War as slaves to Caribbean sugar plantations. King Phillip’s War started because my ancestors were greedy and kept forcing the Natives to sell them more and more land. Eventually, the Natives realized us whites would take everything from them. The Natives had no choice but to fight.

Yeah the history books from my school years 85-98 the trail of tears was a foot note mostly. Touched on by saying " The American Indian people refer to being moved west as The Trail of Tears". My great grandmother on my mom's side was a full blooded Cherokee Indian. She spoke little English and my grandfather, her son, told me about her. I have the classic cheekbones of the Cherokee and though not in any tribe or know what tribe she came from, I was to little to remember, but I take pride in having the blood of natives. It shows in me like my grandfather, saying that we love the land and have a green thumb, is like saying that mountains are soft.

And I know it hasn’t changed as two of my mentees were asked to debate FOR THE REMOVAL OF TRIBES as a “Socratic method”. They were the only Catawbas in their class. If educators and other non-Natives just took the simple step of *realizing* they don’t know anything about us, we’d be in a much better position.

As a member of the Cherokee tribe thank you for talking about this. So many people do not fully understand how brutally Native American people were treated.

Agreed. And yet, when I was in school, Native American history was so little and so whitewashed, I didn’t know how bad I was until I learned it as an adult! We certainly learned about the Holocaust, because the Americans fought to stop it. But crickets when the Native American genocide comes up! And it’s just the tip of the iceberg. So many others have been abused, exploited and denied basic human rights throughout our history. It’s sickening.

I agree that native Americans went through atrocities that no other people on the face of the earth have gone through, to have an entire continent replaced with another culture is something that hasn't happened to any other group of people. Not even close BUT................. If the europeans didnt, some other developed country eventually would have. Ghenghis Khan, Shaka Zula, Atilla the Han, Osman Gazi, The fuken Aztecs. Go read about the Japanese in WW2 and see what they did to Nanking, China and the Phillippins. If Westerners didnt get Hawaii in the 1890s, the Japanese would have taken it by by the 1920s.. History was barbaric but compare the modern world to the people in history back than? you might as well be comparing us to aliens

So tragic what those tribes endured. As an irish woman I never learned much about the Native Americans struggles but Ireland has a strong love and respect for the Chocktaw Nation. Shortly after they arrived in Oklahoma they heard of what was happening in Ireland at the same time, the famine and the people being driven from their homes by the colonizers.

"Particular people" as in white people? Because none of the white people currently on this earth contributed to stealing of land, slavery, none of the things that happened many, many years ago. And I would strongly disagree that people of color or hispanics are "shushed & overlooked." It sounds like you're following along in the trend of let's hate white people. Now if you or a person of color was directly effected by slavery, I could understand the hate. But I can guarantee that not you nor anybody you know has been directly effected by any of these things you claim to hate white people for. It's disgusting.

When I have told others when I was a kid that I was native, those kids did not believe me. Months ago, me being an adult fortunately, I don't know how I would have handled it if I was a kid, I was told that if my people wanted their own land, my people and I needed to go live on a reservation base. It was by some hard-headed white person. I was so upset I didn't even say anything, except that I needed to go pack my bags and move there. He looks so surprised that he was talking to a native person. I don't generally deal with ignorant people, but because he was my husband's friend I coped with his ignorant friend.

I loved that you covered this!

I love the dark history series and am so grateful that you covered the Trail of Tears. Let us not forget how the Trail of Tears ended - with the Dawes Act (1887) - this again broke up Indigenous lands in Oklahoma into 80 and 160 acre plots of lands, forcing tribes to abandon their way of life and then sold the rest of the land to settlers, leading the way to the Land Runs (the largest in 1889). The money from the sale of the lands were suppose to go back to the Tribes to pay for things like farm equipment and homes. Many of the 59 Tribes that were moved to Indian Territory never received any more money from the Government, and many are still plagued with poverty. The Dawes Act went a step further and set up Indian Boarding Schools in Oklahoma with the goal of 'assimilating' children into American society (i.e. forcibly removing Indigenous culture from children to the point where children didn't know their native language and couldn't communicate with their parents).

100% Agree, I want her to make an episode on how current education systems deliberately change history to favor American ideologies. I went to school in Texas and we study from “Texas Edition” text books that completely leave out chapters on immigration and anything that paints US history in a negative light. Gotta love Republican lead education lol

I am an English teacher in Germany and I am already trying to figure out how to use this in class. I'm thinking of a media literacy lesson where one group watches Dark history, the other watches a very academic/no-nonsense documentary or listens to a podcast and the third group reads a text on the topic. This way they'd be able to compare how different media get information across and what sticks in their brain for what reason. I think this this could be great. 🤔

We were rounded up and our livestock was killed to force us out of hiding from troops. We were forced to walk to Ft Sumner in the middle of winter. Kept on a military fort for years in terrible conditions, when "released" back to our lands and forced to walk back in the middle of winter. Thousands and thousands never returned home. They tried to wipe us out. T'ahdii kóó hondiiló We Are Still Here ❤

I kinda got lucky in the sense that my art teacher was almost full native American. She was very in touch with her heritage and she dedicated like 2-3 weeks every year to do research and create projects to put up throughout our school to help educate others about the truth behind the trail of tears. I kinda had the sense that the principal and higher up staff would constantly be checking up on her from time to time. But only during the time period of the year when we'd learn about trail of tears. I really loved having someone who was able to teach us.

I have been watching your videos for a few months now. Ever so often one REALLY hits home, this was one of them. I am Canadian. My in-laws are indigenous and many of them were in the residential schools growing up. It was heart breaking listening to my family talk about what happened when they were in the schools. I believe talking about what happened is so important. We need to learn from this and NOT repeat it. So many people think the residential schools happened a long time ago, the last one in Canada closed down in 1996... not that long ago. Thank you for talking about this Bailey. I love your shows.
