Cherokees first encountered Europeans in 1540 upon the arrival of Hernando de Soto in North America. Later, as settlers discovered gold and pushed westward in search of new lands, conflict erupted. The passage of the Indian Removal Act in 1830 meant that many indigenous tribes living east of the Mississippi were removed from their land to what was known as Indian Territory. The Cherokee were one of several tribes forcibly relocated during the Trail of Tears. The Cherokee Nation shares a diverse history and culture that continues today. Join educator Kaylee Sixkiller to learn more about the Cherokee Nation and its story of resilience.
