Episode description
It’s dark stuff. It’s not pleasant. We wish it wasn’t true.
But that doesn’t mean we can hide it from our children. Because it did happen. And it can easily happen again if we’re not careful.
John G. Burnett knew this. That’s why on his birthday in 1890, he finally told his children what happened when he was in the army in 1838. He told them what he saw at what’s become known as the Trail of Tears.
