    The Removal Act that was passed by Congress on May 28, 1830 gave the president the power to bargain in the relocation of southern Indian tribes to federal land in return for their ancestral land. It was genocide because many Indians were forced out of their ancestral lands and many were killed by disease during their travel to federal territory. Those who resisted were killed due to disease and many conflicts came about as some of the Indians fought back. Among the tribes who suffered under this act were the Cherokee, Choctaw, Seminole, Chickasaws and Creek. Many more died on the Trail of Tears.
