    The Kickapoo Indians, roughly meaning, “He who moves about, standing now here, now there,” spent centuries of time wandering the land of North America. Algonquin, the language from which the Kickapoo speak, have taken their name from the Algonquin words Kiwegapaw or Kiwigapawa. Today, the recognized tribes are the Kickapoo Tribe of Oklahoma, the traditional Tribe in Texas, the Kansas Kickapoo Tribe, and also, The Mexican Kickapoo Tribe. Their population of 3,000 people in 1759 has grown to be almost 600 more members by the year 1990 in the United States (Malinowski, Sheets 88). It seems, the Kickapoo people were not as well known or respected as other tribes today, and unfortunately, were kicked around by not only the Europeans, but also, other Indian tribes. Although the Kickapoo are a lesser known tribe, their traditional ceremonies and way of life are fascinating.…

    Perched upon stumps, telling stories by the fire, day fades into dawn. As the fire burns on the sound of drums pierce the ears of all around it. This is the life of the Chippewa tribe. The Chippewa tribe, also known as Ojibway Indians (Web), was created by the Algonquian people. In the early years, the Algonquian people maintained different tribes and cultures. They also traveled throughout the Great Lakes from place to place to find more efficient resources (Ditchfield 6). In the 1600s, the Chippewa tribe and its people, the Chippewas, became one of the largest and most efficient tribes in North America (7). The Chippewas called themselves the Anishnabe which means the first people because of their Indian heritage (8). The lives of the Chippewas…

    In the early 1800s, White settlements were expanding westward. This threatened the Cherokee land which was located in the Southeastern part of the United States. This left the Cherokee with a big decision to make for their entire tribe. Would they relocate West ,or stay for the White settlements to invade where they call home. After all, the Cherokee had owned the land for over 10,000 years. It was not the United States’ land to take. This is why many of the Cherokee Nation felt the need to stay. Others wanted to move because they felt that if they did not, then the United States territory would override the Cherokee customs and they would have to follow United States laws. Clearly the best chance of survival for the Cherokee was to stay in…

    Even if it was quite a good deal for the federal government, a lot of people who were part of the Cherokee tribe felt betrayed because the negotiators did not represent the tribal government. John Ross, the principal chief of the Nation once wrote “The instrument in question is not the act of our nation,” to the Senate of the United States of America protesting against this treaty. Furthermore, a large number of Cherokees (about 16,000) signed Ross’s petition, but the treaty was approved anyway by the congress. By 1838, just a few Cherokees had left their “former land” for what was called the Indian Territory. After this, nearly 7,000 soldiers were sent to expedite this removal process. The Cherokee were thus forced to march more than 1,200 miles to Indian Territory. Unfortunately, along the way, as said earlier, it was easy for Indians to die contracting diseases such as whooping cough, typhus, dysentery, or cholera. Moreover starvation was also a big issue for the Indians. The federal government back then promised that their new land (Indian Territory) would remain intact forever, the truth though was quite different, and the more whites had envy of conquest, the more the Indian Territory shrank.…
