Indian Removal Act
05/28/1830 AD genocide
The Indian Removal Act was put in place to give to the southern states the land that belonged to the Native Americans. The act was passed in 1830, although dialogue had been ongoing since 1802 between Georgia and the federal government concerning such an event.
The Act was signed by Andrew Jackson and it was strongly enforced under his administration and that of Martin Van Buren, which extended until 1841.
