It was a dark time in history. Over 17,000 Indigenous people were forced to make the trek to Oklahoma and over 4,000 people died along the way. Many deaths were the result of starvation, disease and extreme exposure to the elements.
Um período negro da história... mas não podemos fazer de conta que não existiu! Adorei as fotos que tão bem lembraram... o que não deve ser esquecido, para que não se repita! Um grande abraço! Ana

Ana, I could not agree with your more. It was a dark period that should be remembered so it is never repeated. Thank for the hug. Right back at you.
DeletePast is. Is present. Perhaps the reason why we humans can't learn from it.
