A great first week of classes here at Sewanee, and a full house for my “Trails of Tears” course. Students will be developing more content on local history for our database, “Retracing the Bell Route: An Archive of Cherokee Removal”: https://t.co/7Cwzlv3TCq

My students have put in a lot of hard work the past year on transcriptions and research. We have lots of content for you, and much more to come as the site develops.

The Bell Route of the Trail of Tears passed through Sewanee on October 25th-26th, 1838, on land now owned by the University of the South. With my colleagues Andy Maginn and Al Bardi, I’ve launched a database for the study of this history.

I'll talk about Junaluska's political career and the uses of Creek War memory through Cherokee Removal and beyond. Excited to share my research with NPS and present alongside Sue Abram and Steven Peach!

“If I had known that Jackson would drive us from our homes I would have killed him that day at the Horseshoe.”
Junaluska's most famous quote is the subject of my talk at the Horseshoe Bend National Military Park Annual Symposium this Saturday in Auburn, AL.

100 years ago today, the Indian Citizenship Act was signed into law. The longer history is detailed in my digital map “Citizenship in Indian Country”: https://t.co/fYWcbR4lSw
Educators, consider this as a digital syllabus with sources for further study. Suggestions welcome!

[Stuart H. Marshall @_StuartMarshall]

Tomorrow is the 100th anniversary of the enactment of the Indian Citizenship Act. In commemoration, I am launching "Citizenship in Indian Country," a digital mapping site I developed with some of my students. Please share! https://t.co/j9j1QPpYES

This Memorial Day, as we approach the 100th anniversary of the Indian Citizenship Act, I am reminded of the sacrifices of the World War I generation.

Wrapping up a great semester at Sewanee. Recently took my Native South students on a trip to New Echota State Historic Site, Chief Vann State Historic Site, and the John Ross house (below). Then they did final presentations in the field at a local bison farm
