My name is William Clark. I am the co captain of the corps of discovery.
Meriwether lewis chose me for the expedition wast to explore the louisiana territory. we all faced many hardships along the way
My name is Sacagawea and I was the interpreter and guide for lewis and Clark.
I helped feed most of the corps of discovery with my knowledge of the plants in the area. I also helped compuiculate with other natives. I also faced many hardships too.
My name is Andrew jackson. I was the 7th president of the U.S.
I passed the Indian Removal Act of 1830, appropriating 500,000 to locate tribes west of the Mississippi River.
This caused many hardships and conflicts.
On the expedition we had a lot of bad weather. The weather in the west was a lot different than in the east. We had very limited sleep and food sources and there were a lot of illnesses. And there was a lot of tension between us and the natives.
I had to face the same hardships as the rest of the expedition plus carrying my infant son. I was the only woman among 31 other men and I had to interpret for Lewis and clark and had to talk to tribes that did welcome the expedition.
Some tribes were not happy that I was helping Lewis and Clark. By helping them I was in some ways hurting my own people. I was also not paid but my husband was.
On May 28th 1830 I signed the Indian removal Act. I moved them to please they would never want to go in the first place. I also promised land much bigger than what they actually got.
This caused many conflicts and why manifest destiny was a tragedy.
