SDSU Indian Removal Policy Discussion

0 comments

I have this assignment due and I will provide all the information and if you finish it earlier I will appreciate it. It should be 300 words minimum and if there is anything else let me know.

1. Based on this week and last week’s materials, provide a brief overview of how Indian Removal plans/policies emerged.

2. Based on this week and last week’s materials, how did the native nations in the southeast attempt to resist forced removal?

3. Next, analyze Andrew Jackson’s two speeches (inaugural speech and second annual message.) What is the historical context for these speeches? Who is his intended audience in each speech, and what are his goals regarding US dealings with American Indian tribes? How would you describe the overall language/tone Jackson uses in his speeches? Please use quotes from the speeches to illustrate your points.

4. After, please analyze Andrew Jackson’s” Letter to the Cherokee”. What is the historical context for this letter? Who was Jackson’s intended audience? What was the purpose in the letter, and how was it constructed? How would you describe the overall language/tone used in the letter? What were some key quotes/parts that stood out to you, and why?

5. What kind of patterns or trajectory do you notice in Jackson’s two speeches? How is Jackson’s “Letter to the Cherokee” different from his two speeches, and why?

6. Lastly, please reflect on this week’s materials overall. What resonated with you, and why? How do this week’s materials build off of our previous materials?
