Hi everybody.
My name is Shawna and this is the american English podcast.
My goal here is to teach you the English spoken in the United States through common expressions, pronunciation tips, and interesting cultural snippets or stories.
I hope to keep this fun, useful, and interesting.
Let's do it.
Hi, everyone.
Welcome back.
We are on the third part of this very long episode, and in today's episode, we're going to be talking a lot about the trail of tears, which was the forced relocation of native american tribes in the 1830s.
If you haven't listened to part one or part two of episode 173, I recommend doing that first.
There's, of course, a progression in understanding.
Now, this episode will be fairly short.
As I mentioned last week, when talking about the Cherokees, which is one of the largest native american groups in the United States, there's a narrative that is usually broken into a before meeting white settlers and after.
Because life changed drastically when contact between white settlers was made, the relationship between the two groups, well, it's long, it's complex, and it's tragic.
In the past 500 years, there were a lot of broken promises, cases of exploitation and violence.
Now, it's not pretty, I won't lie, so brace yourself.
I learned about a lot of this in fourth grade history class or social studies class, and so it was kind of nice to refresh my memory about what exactly happened.
So we're going to start at the very beginning when contact was first made between white settlers and Native Americans, and then we'll discuss how tensions between them escalated over time and eventually led to the trail of tears.
Alright, let's begin.
