The Indian Removal Act of 1830

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Indian Removal Act of 1830. Most of these Indians were in the southeastern states. Some Indian tribes resented this, take the Seminoles for example.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well by resent I mean revolt. Of course all tribes would resent their removal from their homelands.

OpenStudy (linda3):

The Indian Removal Act was signed into law by President Andrew Jackson on May 28, 1830. The act authorized him to negotiate with the Native Americans in the Southern United States for their removal to federal territory west of the Mississippi River in exchange for their homelands.
