Cherokee are very religious and spiritual beings‚ and they are very close to the land that the whites want them to give up. When the white settlers moved into the east coast‚ they drove the Cherokee out toward the interior Southeast‚ including north Georgia. After forcing the Natives out the settlers decided that they wanted that land too‚ which is the very reason we are meeting here today at Hermitage. White settlers started to travel and move into Cherokee land at the start of the early

I believe forcing the Indians out of their territory was immoral‚ had no effect on the state of Georgia‚ and it was an abuse of power.
