Indian Removal Act LITERACY · 8TH GRADE Name Date Read the passage, then answer the questions below. The Indian Removal Act of 1830 authorised the president to negotiate treaties exchanging native land east of the Mississippi for territory to the west. Congress passed it narrowly after fierce debate, and missionaries and many northern representatives opposed it. In practice the negotiations were coerced: treaties were often signed by unauthorised minorities within a nation and then enforced against everyone. The Cherokee sued and won in Worcester v. Georgia, where the Supreme Court held that Georgia's laws had no force in Cherokee territory, but the ruling was never enforced. Between 1830 and 1850, roughly sixty thousand people from the Cherokee, Muscogee, Seminole, Chickasaw, and Choctaw nations were removed, and thousands died on the journeys. Questions: 1 What did the act authorise the president to do? 2 Why were the treaties coerced in practice? 3 What happened to the Supreme Court's ruling in Worcester v. Georgia? www.littleactivity.com 8th Grade · Literacy
