As i walk through the cold snow with my bare feet i thought i was about to die. not just because of the bitter cold but because i was strongly frightened that i would get separated from my mother. this was truley not fair that all of the whites get to take over our land. us native Americans are all people to. we deserve a right to have our own homes without them getting taken away. everyone thought that Andrew jackson was going to be a wonderful president, but look what happened here. he deserves to have his home taken away from him and to be living out of a bag on the streets.
As my mother and i walk this long journey to the new land where we must live, my mother is not doing well she has already had a fever and had the chills for days, even before we started out. now she is progressively doing worse. what am i to do? i cant take care of her, i am only a young native American girl at the age of 10.
A couple of hours later she is not able to walk anymore. She tells me to go on without her with the rest of my tribe. I really don’t want to. This isn’t fair to either me or her. And this is all because of that horrible president Andrew Jackson. all of us native Americans have the right to despise him and blame him. As i say goodbye to Mamma i hope we will eventually meet again soon. and be able to be reunited as one.
