[00:00:00]History books call it an unfortunate event, but let's call it what it actually was, a state-sponsored atrocity. In 1838, the Cherokee Nation had a constitution, a written language, and successful businesses. They did everything right, but they were sitting on gold.

They were forced to march over 1,200 miles through a brutal, freezing [music] winter. No shoes, no medicine, minimal food. One out of every four people died on that trail. Elders, infants, mothers buried in unmarked graves along the roadside. It wasn't just a march, it was the Trail of Tears.
