1914 Native Women Speak Out.
A new generation of Native activists emerges, including a handful of young Cherokee college students. Rachel Caroline Eaton uses "Trail of Tears" as the title for her 1914 University of Chicago dissertation. Ann Ross tours the country speaking about the "Trail of Tears" dressed as a Plains Indian "princess." Ruth Muskrat Bronson writes a poem called "Trail of Tears." Together, their efforts begin to popularize Removal. |
