#OnThisDayInHistory: May 28, 1830, #AndrewJackson Signs #IndianRemovalAct
by Levi Rickert May 28, 2026
"On this day in 1830 — 196 years ago — President Andrew Jackson signed the Indian Removal Act into law.
"The Act created a process that allowed the president to exchange lands west of the Mississippi River for the homelands of Native tribes in the eastern United States. In return, tribes were promised financial assistance, supplies for relocation, and the guarantee that they could live on their new lands under the protection of the United States government “forever.”
"In practice, however, the Indian Removal Act became a tool of #coercion and #dispossession. Under Jackson and his supporters, #NativeNations were pressured, bribed, and forced into signing #RemovalTreaties that stripped them of their ancestral territories across the Southeast.
"By the end of his presidency, Jackson had signed nearly 70 removal treaties, leading to the forced relocation of approximately 50,000 #NativeAmericans to what was then called #IndianTerritory, in present-day #Oklahoma. Entire nations were uprooted from lands they had inhabited for generations and pushed into unfamiliar territory designated by the federal government.
"The policy culminated in the Trail of Tears — one of the darkest chapters in American history. Thousands of Native people died from disease, #starvation, and exposure during the forced marches west, including nearly one-quarter of the #CherokeeNation.
"Because of his central role in Native removal and the suffering it caused, many Native Americans remember Jackson as the '#IndianKiller' president and continue to oppose efforts to honor him, including his image remaining on the twenty-dollar bill."

In East Jerusalem, ‘a whole Palestinian community is about to be expelled’
Israel is forcing out Al-Bustan’s 1,500 residents to build a biblical theme park. To avoid paying huge fines, families are demolishing their own homes.

"We are all #Palestinians" -- #Zapatistas Resistances and Rebellion Underway in
#Chiapas#Indigenous leaders and international delegates meet “to resolve and organise against #capitalism and all pyramids”
by Mateo Sgambati, Freedom News, August 4, 2025 (via #CensoredNews)
"The gathering is being hosted in Chiapas by the Zapatista Army of National Liberation (#EZLN), aiming “to reach an agreement on what, how, where, and why” of demolishing capitalism and all hierarchical systems. The gathering opened over the weekend with a
marching display where all carried Palestinian flags.
" 'We are all Palestinian children,' said Subcomandante Insurgente Moisés at the opening of the meeting. 'Today, in one of the small parts of this land, the capitalist system is committing #genocide against the Palestinian people. We cannot forget, we cannot set aside'.
"In the statement ahead of the gathering, Zapatista speaker El Capitan (aka Marcos) had referred to 'what it means to be born, grow up, live, and struggle as #IndigenousPeople in a geography where
being ‘other’ is a cause of contempt, #exploitation, #repression, and #dispossession. ‘To be’ where ‘not to
be’ is the norm and and the stigma for those who are different'.The inauguration was done by the Zapatista Army of National Liberation (EZLN) with a deployment of militia and a speech by the insurgent Sub-Commander Moises."Via Censored News:

Imperial violence
"Imperial conquest and colonization depended on pervasive raiding, slaving, and plunder. European empires amassed global power by asserting a right to use unilateral force at their discretion. They Called It Peace is a panoramic history of how these routines of violence remapped the contours of empire and reordered the world from the fifteenth to the twentieth centuries."
The book "brings vividly to life a world in which warmongers portrayed themselves as peacemakers and Europeans imagined “small” violence as essential to imperial rule and global order."

„The Israeli army has distanced itself from comments made by a brigadier general that ground forces are getting closer to “the complete evacuation” of the northern Gaza Strip and residents will not be allowed to return home. (…)
International humanitarian law experts have said that such actions would amount to the war crimes of forcible transfer and the use of food as a weapon.“

"Fire-resilient landscapes” and “fire-adapted communities” through biocultural restoration as a fire risk mitigation strategy.
A clear-eyed view on historic harms by settler societies: Settler transition to large-scale agriculture (plantations) transformed ecohydrological conditions and introduced weeds. The neglected land and extractive tourism practices drive increases in fire risks.
"We argue that decolonizing postplantation landscapes through the restoration and reconnection of people to land will not only help prevent future catastrophic fires, but also address social and environmental inequities.The connections of colonialism to contemporary extreme fire regimes are not unique to Hawaiʻi. The dispossession of Indigenous communities worldwide has suppressed cultural burning and altered fire regimes that support the production of food and material culture."

Today at the #food and #clothing #relief #outreach that I help with on #Fridays I found this rare-ish #Australian 1c #coin.
It's a strange thing to be excited about: a product of #dispossession, #massacres, #racism, #ecological destruction, with the kicker that it's now obsolete.
How the feathertail glider on one side contrasts with QEII (decorated with what I'm told are stolen gems, and under whose rule #genocidal acts were perpetrated) on the other just floors me.
What is evil, if not this?
