Do you see any similarities in the situations faced by the cherokee and seminole peoples and situations faced by any other groups in u. s. history? in our society today? other parts of world?

The Cherokee and Seminole people faced several struggles in the United States. They were forced to move from their native lands thanks to laws like the Indian Removal Act and were also forced to assimilate into American culture with the development of Indian boarding schools. These types of situations can be seen as similar to the experience of African-Americans in US history.

Just like the Cherokee and Seminole, African-Americans were forced to assimilate into American culture. Especially during the era of slavery in the US, as these individuals were sometimes forced to convert to Christianity. Along with this, African-Americans also had federal laws that negatively impacted their lives. The Dred Scott v. Sanford case (1857) decided in the Supreme Court ruled that African-Americans as property and not people. This caused African-Americans to have no legal rights. As you can see, the Seminole, Cherokee, and African-Americans were discriminated against by the federal government and forced to assimilate into American culture.
