Native+American+Presentation

Trail of Tears was a Native American migration within the US. Native Americans from the East were forced to migrate to the the Midwest (OK). Many Americans felt that the Native Americans could have assimilated to American culture, but many resisted. This movement changed the lives of 100,000 Natives and established the Bureau of Indian Affairs in 1836. ‍

 Native Americans and World War II WWII led to an exodus of Native Americans from reservations into cities. 50%! Navajo code talkers also played a large part in the war. Navajo Indians would speak in code so that neither Japan or Germany could decipher what they were saying. ‍‍
