Remove Jackson's Home from the Trail Of Tears





To:  U.S.Congress
We , The decendants of the Native Peoples of the South Eastern United States,and all people of like morals ,find your inclusion of Jackson's Hermitage Home into the "National Trail of Tears" any thing but honorable to the aforementioned People. Your statement that this is your way to honor the genocidal removal of our People, is offensive, disrespectful, and a blatant slap in the face to ALL the "Original" inhabitants of this land, America ,that you now call yours. We insist that you remove the idea, content, and any other reference of this Man, unless it is to publicly tell the truth about his role in the systematic genocide of our People. The only thing that would Honor our Ancestors in a small way, would be for the United States Government to Publicly apologize to ALL Native Peoples for their ill-written history of genocide on Turtle Island, and thier involvement, and denial thereof. At best, we would hope that this Congress would begin the healing that is long overdue, by not incorporating any reference to Jackson,who had more to do with the very source of the events that caused this tragedy of humanity to be called The "Trail Of Tears", in the first place.Many Men, Women, and Children died as a result of his direct involvement, broken promises, and broken Treaties as a representative of this Government....This is akin to Honoring Adolf Hitler at a WWII Holocaust Memorial........Please.....

Sincerely,


Visibility: Everyone
