The Trail of Tears Memorial at the New Echota Historic Site. The Trail of Tears was a series of forced relocations of Native American nations in the United States following the Indian Removal Act of 1830.
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. This picture, The Trail of Tears, was painted by Robert Lindneux in 1942.
