I did not know detailed information about the Trial of Tears. I know that this is a tragic story of Native Americans and African Americans that caused the loss of lives. Specifically, it was an implemented policy of American authorities to migrate people forcefully through nine states. This forced migration led to starvation, the spread of disease, and other complications that resulted in the death of about 4000 Native Americans. As such, the two things that I knew prior to the class are that the Trial of Tears was forced migration proposed by the American government and that it caused the loss of lives.
