Briefly explain ONE way Helen Hunt Jackson's point of view differs from that of E. Merton Coulter.
Scholars on Indian Removal Act
Step-by-step explanation
Helen Hunt Jackson clashed with the opinion of E. Merton Coutler on the issue of Indian Removal from Georgia. Hunt argued that the removal of the Indian Tribes was a result of treacherous deal initiated by the federal government. She states that the act was against the values and founding principles of the nation. On the other hand, Merton supported the Indian Tribes removal from Georgia. He argued that the Indians were aliens in Georgia hence posing a serious threat to the sovereignty of the state. Hunt opposed the Indian Removal Act which was supported by Merton.
