Seminole Indians Displacement

Its hard to believe in this day and age that the land we live on in Central Florida and Western Florida was once the land of the Seminole Indians. In fact, most of the state of Florida was populated by Seminole Indian tribes until the United States purchased the land in the 1820's. The relationship between the Indians and the Americans was hostile and lead to thousands of deaths and the displacement of the Indians. The Seminoles were forced westward and eventually into small controlled reservations. The United States continued its brutal history with natives in Florida and continued to disrespect the land that was controlled for thousands of years by these people. Its interesting to think if we were to fast forward the clock and these events happened today what would happen. With so many activists and discrimination groups I believe the United States wouldn't be able to take such land and displace whole tribes of Indians. Displacement is so linked with American History and should be seen as one of worst traits of early American development. The United States could have arranged treaties and land deals to more fairly involve the Indians for the fate of their native land.
