We know that we're going to be removed.

So let's do everything we can to help establish these communities.

We even had a group of Choctaw people in 1830 remove out early to try to establish cornfields and get food ready for the first wave of removal.

No, absolutely not.

I mean, the 1831 removal was fraught with negligence.

Yeah.

So the Indian agent in the East, the Indian agent in the West are not communicating.

And that negligence led to the death of Choctaw people.

Supplies, food, equipment, everything is in the wrong place.

Things are not scheduled on time.

And that with the weather, you know.

In some cases, the weather's hitting zero degrees Fahrenheit.

We are hitting inches of ice and snow and people are left in the elements to die.

And so the 1831 removal was so expensive and it had so many issues that the U.S.

government said, if we continue removing the tribes of the Southeast, the United States will go broke if we continue in this fashion.

So in 1832, they took the responsibility of removal away from the Indian agents and they gave it to the Department of War.

And the Department of War is who would remove all other tribes in U.S.

history.

The U.S.

Army takes over.
