Not trying to make it heavy in here but for #footpathfriday I wanted to share this stretch of path from one of the “Trail of Tears”. According to the signs, this is one of the best preserved stretches of the Trail of Tears and it was a sobering and reflective experience to think about all of those Natives who were forcibly removed from their homes and land. It bothers me Everytime I think about it.

Facebook is the worst. I've posted in the past about the proliferation of mostly Vietnamese in origin 'Native American' accounts there that usually are fronts for t-shirt companies. In the past they heavily leaned on stereotypes & historical figures. Huge followings far beyond real Native accounts.

With #AI it got real goofy. I remember one I saw that showed people camping along the way of the #TrailOfTears in tipis. I was like WTF. 1000s & 1000s of shares/likes.

Please boost!

My family and I are survivors of the world's two largest genocides, and enslavement. The odds were against us big time, but #WeAreStillHere.

Accept my elder wisdom please. Do not minimize #Felon47, he's one of the most dangerous people in history. This is not a joke or a test, it's the real thing.

Trump, his administration and followers must be stopped!

Covering most of what became #Oklahoma, the #IndianTerritory was created by Congress on #ThisDayInHistory in 1825. This set the stage for the #TrailOfTears: a #genocidal removal of over a dozen #Indigenous nations from America's southeast. The US still won't reckon with its past.

Today in Labor History December 29, 1835: The U.S signed the Treaty of New Echota with a minority Cherokee faction. The treaty gave all the Cherokee lands east of the Mississippi River to the U.S. However, the treaty was never approved by the Cherokee National Council nor signed by Principal Chief John Ross. Nevertheless, it was ratified in March 1836 and became the legal basis for the forcible removal known as the Trail of Tears, which killed 4000-6000 indigenous men, women and children.

On #ThisDayInHistory in 1837, during the #TrailOfTears, 311 #Muscogee (#Creek) Indians died when the steamboat #Monmouth collided with another boat on the #MississippiRiver. This contributed to the ~16000 people killed in the #genocide under Jackson's "Indian Removal" policies.
