i was just in oklahoma and you see television commercials on the major channels from the chickasaw nation, cherokee nation, the choctaw nation. these are indian nations that have genuine power today. and have recovered in a way that i think would be really shocking to people who had seen what they went through in the 1830's. that is certainly an element of the story that native people went through removal really want that to be understood, that they not only survived, but they did prosper. in this new place -- prosper in this new place. the trail of tears is a really famous event and pretty much all americans know that phrase, trail of tears. i think they pretty much know it is something about indians, something really bad done to indians, and a lot of people know andrew jackson's part of that story. that it tendsis to be seen as a shape of moment in history but kind of a small event. it was really something done to indians. and what we hope to do here is to show how it was a much larger event. so we operated from what people already think and what people already know. so at the concludin

the chickasaw nation and choctaw nation, these are nations that have actual genuine power today. and have recovered in a way that would be shocking to people from the 1830s. that certainly is an element to the story that they really want to be understood. they not only survived but they prospered in this new place. the trail of tears is a really famous event. pretty much almost all americans know that phrase, the trail of tears. i think everyone knows something was bad that was done to indians, and we know andrew jackson was part of that story. what we found is that it tends to be seen as a shameful moment in history but a small event. we hope to show how it was a much larger event. we operated from what people already think and people already know. so at the concluding section of the exhibit we look at trail of tears in national memory over time. what's interesting is the trail of tears, indian removal, was never forgotten by american indians. but in national memory it faded away pretty quickly. and when you look at what historians wrote in the late 19th century, into the first

, so while those senators were up on capitol hill, he had the opportunity to go into places like chickasaw county, a community of new hampton with 3,500 people, where he was able to stop and make that pitch. but now, if you look at polling in south carolina, in nevada, in those other later primary states, he's still at single digits in the polls. and if you are looking at that message, he is now contending that he is the candidate that is best equipped to beat donald trump in the midwest. well, per what steve kornacki was just showing on the map there, he provided evidence to that in particularly iowa in places like dubuque and dallas county. can he do the same thing and replicate that in michigan and wisconsin, where if you're looking at wayne counties and milwaukee counties, which have much more robust communities of color. that is still where pete buttigieg is going to have to penetrate and convince folks that he is worthy of more than just an iowa caucus victory, but he's very much relevant to this democratic nominating process. >> vaughn hillyard, chasing the story still in iowa, and

grant will send sherman come apart of a two-pronged movement in november and december 1862, down to chickasaw valley, where sherman says i landed, not assaulted, was defeated, got back into the boats and took off. that is his rendition. so those two efforts just to get to vicksburg did not work. by that time we are into 1863, everything is wet and muddy in the river has risen in the bayous and creeks have risen and are full of water, so grant doesn't have much of a choice of what to do next. so he starts water born operations, tries to dig a canal, a third attempt to bypass vicksburg, a canal across the base of de soto peninsula. that doesn't work. he tries to go through lake providence. that doesn't work. the yazoo pass operation, into thatallahatchie river, harebrained operation doesn't work. another operation. six of these major attempts over the course of six months of the vicksburg campaign all failed. of war.ational level what does succeed is grant's seventh attempt. this time he is out of options and it is april, getting into may 18 63. you can't turn around and go back. sherman is say
