Abstract
This podcast addresses Native American Removal in relation to the American Paradox. A brief history of Native American conflict as well as American ideas of expansion give insight into the interactions between settlers and natives. I will also examine Andrew Jackson's legacy and the Indian Removal Act of 1830 with regard to the American Paradox and explain how it is intimately connected to Native American Removal.
