Jackson was a complicated figure. He despised the British, whom he blamed for the death of his brothers and mother and his mistreatment as a prisoner of war during the American Revolution. By extension, he despised anyone who was an ally of Britain, in particular the Native American tribes who enjoyed the backing of the British government and conducted raids on white settlements. It helps to explain his later actions as a general in wars against the Creeks, as well as the Seminoles. Not to mention his defense of New Orleans against the British in 1815. So with that background, his signing of the Indian Removal Act as President isn't surprising, and reflected and attitude of many that native tribes people should assimilate and become Americans or be labeled as potentially troublesome or simply in the way of progress and moved elsewhere.

I have to point out a slight error from 11:48 onward. There shouldn't be a period after the "S" in Truman's name, as it wasn't an initial and didn't stand for anything. To quote Wikipedia, "His middle initial, "S", is not an abbreviation of one particular name. Rather, it honors both his grandfathers, Anderson Shipp Truman and Solomon Young, a semi-common practice in the American South." And reportedly, if they game him the middle name of either grandfather but not the other, they shunned grandfather would never speak to his parents again.

Very impressed with how much they know about American History.
