Devastating Georgia History
the Trail of Tears causes a horrible childhood memory.
Trail Of Tears
the Trail Of Tears caused so much pain to so many cherokee families. the cherokee couldn't do anything about it. they were kicked out of their homes & off of their land. many families had to suffer in the cold winter with nowhere to stay, nothing to eat, and nothing to smile about. many of them passed away from the bitter cold, disease, & dehydration. many of the mothers left crying. in the same trail where all those tears dropped still grows, the Cherokee Rose.
