Levy Lecture: The Cherokee and the Politics of Indian Removal with Joyce Haworth
Levy Senior Center Foundation Presents the Levy Lecture: The Cherokee and the Politics of Indian Removal with Joyce Haworth
Presented via Zoom.
Join us for this fascinating Levy Lecture Tuesday, October 29 at 1:30pm with Joyce Haworth, a U.S. historian and lecturer.
The federal government once praised the Cherokee as “far in advance of any other tribe in civilization.” This recognition was double-edged, as the government aimed to "civilize" all tribes to claim their land. The Cherokee, however, used their savvy to launch a legal attack and safeguard their homeland. Haworth will explore the politics of Indian removal, the Cherokee’s struggle, and the limits of American democracy. LSCF Board member Rob Bady will moderate.
